Oops, saw that was approaching, but I've just steamed straight through it without realising.

The worst thing that can ever happen is that you miss your 10000th day birthday. (It happens when you're 27.)

That's cool. I checked how long I've been living and it turns out that in 13 days time I will be 7500 days and this milestone coincides with the release of the final Harry Potter film. Cannot wait!

Ooh, I got under 6 years to go til my 20,000th day birthday.
Btw I used to get excited at various numerical landmarks on my milometer, on my moped that I used to have (back in the days when I used to purchase my 2 wheeled transport).

Being well past 30000 days, the next round number I can hope to achieve is 32768 in about 4 years :(

Nah, not really. I missed doing the Zager and Evans lyric in the Celebrations thread, but I'll get over that. I'm more upset that Soph doesn't think I'm cool :cry:

I'm 13,264 days old btw.

And you will, Peter, you will.

I'm 14,579 days old. It's quite impressive the range of ages we have on here, I always think.

I'm of an age where I can amaze my friends by predicting that their Ruby wedding will fall on a Sunday. (My friends are easily amazed.)

With the added advantage that it being the forty year anniversary makes it leap year proof.

Putting this here, because I can.
Due to the clock in the delivery room being 10 minutes out, the Beckhams have changed their babies name to Twentyto Eight.

Just heard a rumour that if you take away all Jon Corby's posts where he is being horrible the count is left at only about 700.

Personally, I lump him in with Carl.

Baby. If you can't stand the heat, stay out of the kitchen chopping stuff up and putting it into little bowls.

If you take away all those posted during "a day's work (something you'd know nothing about)" there'd be even fewer.
