Maybe I phrased it badly. Life seems to go by quicker the older you get, and you feel like you get less done and theres never enough hours in the day. I bet the older guys can school us there....

Anyone who does that to kids should be put in stocks in the town centre - Justice would be served.

Thats not enough!!
It hurts me morally to say this but i'd turn totally Dr Mengele on those worthless........ I'd better stop right there

By the way mate 39 is not too old to join the reserves.
The max age is 40, in fact there was someone of that age in my new entry class.
Enjoy your birthday & take it easy.

The best way I find to get over a bout of mild depression is to get out and do physical activity. A long walk, local country side or coast helps. Get to the gym or have a run. Body then produces its own happy pills.

If you think life is passing you by, do something about it. Review was is important to you and concentrate on that. It was part of my reasoning to get into the Reserves and now apply for the RN full time even at my advanced age. Sports are always good no matter what your age great ways to make more friends.

Alternatively a degree? Not my bag but I know of loads in their 30s and 40s that go down this route with the OU etc. Anyhow, good luck mate. And sorry Lamri beer normally just amplifies for current mood, so may not be the best solution.

OK Devils Advocat..(yes i know lamri you can correct my spelling)
these people that do such sick things to children are monster's..
we all feel pain and god knows how .. you or i would react if it was our own children but im sure your no monster.... to bring retrobution to them you would have no soul,,, or remorse... would you be able to live knowing what you had become.......i dont think so.. your no monster,,, and yes i say this as a mother who has not had to deal with her children being hurt... so its easy for me to sit back and think reasonably....
