In my part of Northern Ireland we called them “gutties”.

Thought I'd depress everyone, and just mention that it is fifty one years since the first Sex Pistols gig.

Getting old doesn’t depress me. I will be 70 on my next birthday, but I am not old, neither am I ready to get old. I still work, albeit 3 days per week, I still enjoy life, I still look forward to things. Life comes at you in a series of ages, the trick is to enjoy each one as it presents itself. Don’t waste what you have today by longing for something you had yesterday, it wasn’t better it was just different.

It don't depress me until I look in mirror and also when I'm down on floor and try to get up!!

It does depend, though, on why I was down on the floor in the first place ...

What a brilliant way to look at life, thank you.

You ARE old. In the body. But not in your mind.

I am 75 in a few months, but in my head I'm still that lunatic 21 year-old gigging 3-4 times a week in the nightclubs of Liverpool.

I'm still researching and writing, so I try to keep my mind as active as possible.

Been married 50 years to 'er indoors. Must have got something right!
