Going to the gym, and having a good workout, putting those kids in there to shame!

Definitely having a girls night with my adult daughter and step daughters, we the most fun, listening and dancing to music, a few glasses of prosecco and I feel 25 again!

Lying down in the snow and making snow angels - I felt like a child again but it was really hard to get up again!

Laughing with old friends and good relationships with younger people in my family and local community.

As well as being a Nana to 3 little ones I am a preschool teacher. Spending all my time with little people keeps you young at heart - though maybe my knees don't always feel so young!

Laughing with our teen grand-daughter reminds me of those belly-hurting laughs we enjoyed as teens.

Spending time with my Granddaughter. She loves helping in the garden & I end up planting the flowers & vegetables she wants to grow. I also spend time cooking with her.

I went to an 80's retro music festival a couple of months ago and my sister and I dressed up for it.... just putting on those stonewashed jeans, the legwarmers, neon t-shirts and all the blue eyeshadow and mascara ... it was like deja vu .... I felt like 20 all over again!!!

Talking to a rediscovered friend from junior school. Haven't seen each other in over 45 years, but feel that like that confident, daring child all over again.

A bus ride on the front seat of a double decker bus with my husband and we feel young again.
