    I reckon 23 was the best age (for me anyway). A nice balance between having feck all responsibilities and freedom aplenty. I'm 28 next month, and these days its all health insurance/ ikea/ work and crap like that.
    So what was your favourite age to be, and how long ago was it!

    had to have been 14, I did a lot of things for the first time that year, first time I did e, coke, heroin, speed, meth, had sex, went to a celtic match, went to an Ireland match, went to a man utd match, went to croke park, went on a holiday abroad and first time I got an A in an exam, and first time I beat a charge. Good year.

    18-19 was pretty cool as well, moving out of home and living with 2 good friends in Galway... good times!:p

    Damn you.
    I was gonna be all clever and say "Ice".

    Mine would probably be now. I'm happier now than I've ever been.

    I miss being 14: finding out about smoking crippie in my brother's backyard with all his friends; having all the band equipment in the basement and having people just rocking out all the time: and nobody worried a drop about what was going to happen next, that was the defining feature for me.

    So your sig says 'you'd be pissed off if you were me' because...?

    About now, playing in bands all the time, having a larf.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,698 ✭✭✭InFront


    Years 1 - 4 probably, just a pity I can't remember them. Year with the best memories would probably be the current period 18-21. Graduate, work, get married: It's just got to be all downhill from here.

    I never said I was happy now. I said that I'm a happier now that I have ever been. If you think I'm pissed off now, you should have seen me last year.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 86,683 ✭✭✭✭Overheal


    Does that have anything to do with your name being Terry but everyone just assuming youre a woman cos of the sig??? Im confused....

    Tar.Aldarion all over again.

    Some people thought I was a he for a while.
    Hello, the first four letters of my name are Tara.
    Sheesh.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 26,073 ✭✭✭✭Terry

    My last TV appearance was on BBC at the end of last month, just working on some new songs at the moment.
    I must plug boards next time I am on the Late Late.

    My current age, so far (21). I've got lots of friends (I never had friends before college, really; I was too weird), I'm not longer fat, I'm no longer prone to lapsing into depression.


  • Subscribers Posts: 17,213 ✭✭✭✭copacetic


    17-18 for me. we didn't know we were born. sigh.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 16,165 ✭✭✭✭brianthebard


    I'm still waiting for a "good age". I'm hoping I can emigrate for a few years after college, I have high hopes for those years.

    What makes you think it'll be better somewhere else? You'll know few people, be stuck paying bills, rent etc.

    For me it would have been between the ages of 20-22. I was in college enjoying the lifestyle and didn't have much of a care in the world. In late twenties now and looking forward to the wisdom the forthcoming years will bring.....:D
