Please guys! This is a public forum, can we have posts that everyone understands and finds relevant please? I'd like to be sutton's mascot. I'm small enough Billy the brick is relevant. Tangents are compulsory.

Fair do's I have trouble understanding what I'm on about most of the time, so I can't expect anyone else to make sense of me now, can I?

It's The Animals. (I think?) That's the thing with advancing years you remember sh*te, but only bits & pieces! Nope. Lied. It's Joe Cocker. Baby, do you understand me now, Sometimes I feel a little mad. But, don't you know that no one alive can always be an angel. When things go wrong I feel real bad. I'm just a soul whose intentions are good, Oh Lord, please don't let me be misunderstood. Baby, sometimes I'm so carefree, With a joy that's hard to hide. And sometimes it seems that, all I have to do is worry And then you're bound to see my other side. I'm just a soul whose intentions are good, Oh Lord, please don't let me be misunderstood. If I seem edgy, I want you to know, That I never mean to take it out on you. Life has its problems, And I get my share, And that's one thing I never mean to do, 'Cause I love you, Oh, Oh, oh, oh, baby - don't you know I'm human. I have thoughts like any other one. Sometimes I find myself, Lord, regretting, Some foolish thing - some little simple thing I've done. I'm just a soul whose intentions are good, Oh Lord, please don't let me be misunderstood. (repeat) (repeat There.

As a member of the elder brigade I can confirm that you were right on both counts ISIHAC, 'twas both The Animals AND Joe Cocker.

Just in case you were wondering - I nicked this. I didn't write it! The inherent differences between people mean that a quick-witted 60-year-old can outperform a slow-minded 25-year-old in tasks at which youth should prevail. But, in general, from the age of 20, you can see a decline in a person's raw mental agility—recalling a list of objects, grouping objects into classes and replacing words with numbers (or vice versa). The speed of reaction slows, too.
The brains of those aged 40 and older decrease in volume and weight by 5% every ten years. This shrinkage, though universal, affects people's mental performance in very different ways. Similarly, other changes in the brain—such as the gradual decrease in the supply of oxygen and sugar—leave some peoples' memories unaffected, while others are searching for their glasses.That's some of us knackered then!
