I first felt ‘old’ after turning 50 (!) when my mother said (in a won’t-that-be-nice? tone) that I was now eligible to go on Saga holidays!

Cue aghast reaction from me, and an offended mother!

You are very lucky if you don’t need it for used fuel I don’t feel old or vulnerable but I do know I find it a big help just like the free bus pass and when I was younger the family allowance

Treat yourself when you are able to go out.

Goodness, I had mine back in November and very welcome it was too. Very few perks in some areas of maturity. I enjoy those I have and they're sometimes material. Hallelujah!

Ha ha Riverwalk. Join the clan. I started feeling old in my 50's when I let my hair go white and the bus drivers asked if I had a bus pass! I delight in actually being old now! ?

I've just received my first Winter Fuel Allowance - surely it only goes to very old vulnerable grannies, not me!

Don't know whether to laugh or cry grin
