calmck I don't agree. Most of the knowledge (not all obviously) accrued by over 75's is outdated. I find younger people know far more than I did at their age and are on the whole more inclusive, less racist and more concerned about their future than we ever were. The 'Good Old Days' when examined without rose coloured specs, are far less appealing.
JOrdy, you are as usual, very astute in your observations and obviously have all, if not most, of your marbles left to play with lol! x

Then you are mixing with the wrong young people then Sparkly. Come on ...have you EVER got a captive teenager to help you with your phone/internet/ etc?
Young people don't need to know about general knowledge like we used to -that's what Google is for. I would have saved hours, maybe days in the library had we had Google when I was in my teens!

72 neary 73. I have never been racist , sexist or bigotted. Nor were my parents or my grandparents. I was worldly wise and travelling overseas on my own at 18, encouraged by my parents. My good old days were very good. I don't find today's youngsters thick, but usually sadly lacking in genersal knowledge and often bigotted in their views about older people, and much more gloomy in general than we were.
