today at approximately 4.00am i reached the grand old age of 50.
should i continue to battle time,injuries,obesity,insidious alcoholism in the pursuit of a few moments glory when i occasionally get up a problem or should i do as nature intended with my body type and become a fat drunk.

please advise.

lol, happy birthday man, I say battle on!!! :D

[SA Chris]

Happy birthday, you old duffer.

Good effort - well done.  :D There were times I thought I'd never make it past 30 but I'm right there behind you, old man.

[Bubba]

Glad there's some people older than me on here!

Become a fat drunk who just talks about all that bouldering you used to do.....hang on, that's me

i thought i was getting old, somehow managing to make it to 21 alive this coming wednesday! ;-)

Happy birthday though...

Surely they're not that incompatible...

well hopefully i'm going to seeing as have only about 4 hours left to go!!!

If anyone fancies celebrating and is in sheffield tommorow night then we'll be down the devonshire cat between 9 and 9.30 till lasties, then we'll carry on depending on the mood....

Hopefully see you some of you there.

I'm begining to push 40 with a shorter stick than I would prefer.

Keep cranking it out, remeber age and treachery will overcome youth and skill.

As long as I'm soloing E5 when I'm 60 I'll be happy (of course E5 in 20 ish years time will be about VS in todays money)

Webbo, happy birthday (sorry, missed this thread last week), and what ever you do, don't give up the faith until they're nailing down the lid of yer coffin.
Are you coming across for Streaky's 50th do on the 25th June?
That crafty fucker doesn't look a day older than he did in his twenties. He's planning a 'post 50' ascent of Jerry's Roof (he's already done the V8+ tourist tick from the juggy sidepull) just to burn his son off!
I heard Rab Carrington was about to do his first 8a - can this be true!!! :shock:
I guess age is just a bullshit excuse - just keep taking the glucosamine, and eat lots of oat cakes, and plenty of water, and plenty of ibuprofen (no, shit! that'll weaken yer heart...)
