I’m an old fogey . Are you ?

Am I an old fogey?
You should be whatever you like. Personally I enjoy being 18years, 30 years, or maybe 40 - in my head that is.
I love going out, looking forward to the new seasons fashions, dressing up, making up and engaging with all generations.
What does that make me?
A Baby Boomer !!

I’m definitely an old fogey, based on your criteria Gemini, but also on a few that others have mentioned. I wear vests in winter, an apron when I’m cooking, I love my slippers, I get changed into comfortable jogging trousers as soon as I get home (I’ve no intention of going jogging though) I love the house to be warm.

Gabriella - Thank you for reminding me about Churlston Deckle. I always used it years ago, not sure why I stopped, maybe too expensive or couldn't find it locally.

Thank you for your warm comments - I bake cakes every week but I can't make scones!

Awaiting the adoption papers to sign [wink}

Isn’t Churlston Deckle the Conservative MP for Henley??

I've just won the prize for being the biggest old fogey of you all: I opened up my tax return form in order to complete it and found I am one of the 9% of British citizens who still do it by hand!

Just been reading a book published in 1866. In it someone is referred to as an 'old fogey' and it meant there what it means now: somone, usually older, who sticks to doing things the way they were done decades ago rather than adapting to modern practice, said with kindness, if dismissively.

Definitely entering fogeydom here, since I've actually brought my knitting on holiday (to be fair I have a lot to do before mid November) and instead of being raring to get to the beach every day, as I always did, I'm happy to potter about for a few hours and tick off another 10 rows.

I used to know one or two young fogeys - those who were apparently born middle aged. One young chap, only late teens, and not that long ago, invariably wore grandpa-type shirts (winceyette type check) and a knitted tie!

In 1811 an old fogey was a nickname for an invalid/wounded soldier from the French fierce/fiery.
And I didn't think I was BUT yehhhh I AM.
