Many of us, me included will always be kids even if we have kids, our hearts are still young.

But it took me two days to recover from my aches after a weekend of digging in the garden.

45. Played Elite on the BBC in '84 then on the Commodore 64. Went on to play in punk bands and work on building sites and didn't really get back into gaming. Only reason I'm here now is because I used my music PC to look on line for an Elite remake to try and relive those days. Discovered Oolite and discovered Elite: Dangerous through that and ended up buying into Premium Beta.

Now that is good, yes. I used to do a search for "Elite 4" like once a year, almost giving up hope. When I saw the kickstarter in december 2012 my heart almost stopped. Luckily it didn't, so now im 43. :)

By the way, someone on the official forums told me, once you're 50 and didn't grow up yet, you don't have to any more! :D

From the age responses here it looks like the Mobius Group might need a title change..

The Greys..

Perhaps :P

I'm 44 here...I used to love the Goodies...and the Goon Show, but that was from my dad's knock off copies of the radio shows. I'm a (little bit) too young for them live. :-)
