Anyone like to put themselves forward as possibly the oldest active DIYer in this group?

I'm a war baby although farming was a reserved occupation.

[Chris J Dixon]

Had it not been for the war, I'd probably have been older.

[F Murtz]

73 but I would not be surprised if there were some 80 or 90s.

[David Lang]

Unbeliever. 142 YO.

[Bob Eager]

Or five.

Not there yet, but I probably will be by the time I get this place finished.

75 but it's more often GSI* than DIY these days!

I'm a mere sixty-five and five-sixths but I have a feeling that t'other Nick who posts here has a few years headstart on me.

I'm 56 but after doing a little concreting the other day I felt more like

106 whereas normally I only feel about 88. Does that count?

snap - on the age front. I've acquired all these tools over the years, it seems a shame not to use them.

There is nothing wrong with acting like a 5 year old.

The gf refused to take a video so I just asked the nearest person to take one for me.

I'm in my fourth reincarnation. The rest of you lot can stand down.

66 and I did feed three jumbo bags of aggregate + cement into the mixer for the guy who is laying my patio base on Thursday and Friday.

Because I reckon two guys mixing + laying get three times as much laid as one person on their own.

I felt better than I expected to afterwards!

[Bill Wright]

Oh, concreting is a bugger. There's always more of it just looking at you.
