I'm slightly older than 20 :D :D I still use a camera. :D

Am I the only person that's never stepped inside a IKEA? :D I remember the days of MFI:'(.

I live near Ivinghoe beacon the the trains look smaller than N gauge. :D

I volunteer in a charity shop and we have a young girl also volunteering. I was speaking to her today and I said to her, what things were like when I was in school 53 years ago. :D :D How times have changed.

I'll be on a cruise late April that calls at Copenhagen for the day. Is it doable, to plan a trip for myself that goes across the Bridge?
