    Best thing for me was getting my freedom pass, I don't drive. I use it on buses trains and DLR and travel about quite a bit.
    Same here.

    Going in to Walkabout in Plymouth - and some Millennial behind the bar won't serve me because I haven't got ID.
    I'm 64, for chrissakes!

    I'm 60 in a week or so and happily applied for my 60+ Oyster card. Free bus travel and free train travel after 9:30 and at weekends. Getting older has its benefits

    I used to call them old age pensioners until I became one myself. Now we are pensioners.

    Getting called "young man" at least twice a day is one of the benefits of doing some charity work with the elderly.
    What like this, young man?

    Earlier this year,  whilst staying in a hotel for work in Scarborough, I got into a discussion with one of hotel workers who was telling me the hotel had changed hands as was now run by Malaysians and he was concerned about how they would treat the hotel staff. I replied that having worked in Malaysia he would find them very nice people. He replied oh that's good, were you out there with the British RAJ!! When I looked at him very indignantly and said how old do you think I am, he apologised and said "Was it during 2nd world war?' and he was being bloody serious!!! Sodding cheeky bastard!!
