We used to do this back in the day, and Larry Brom would always win. grin

Larry is no longer with us, so… who among us is the oldest?

I'll go first. I'm 65. Can you beat that? grin

rustymusket02 Oct 2023 1:12 p.m. PST

I am 72.

d88mm194002 Oct 2023 1:47 p.m. PST

I just turned 40 this year, and my 19 year anniversary as a member of TMP is later this month.

Personal logo Herkybird Supporting Member of TMP02 Oct 2023 5:56 p.m. PST

I am 65 too, and healthy, generally, and am happy at that!

Stryderg Supporting Member of TMP02 Oct 2023 6:15 p.m. PST

I'm a spry young rapscallion at 57.

Oberlindes Sol LIC Supporting Member of TMP02 Oct 2023 6:20 p.m. PST

I'm still a kid (which makes Stryderg a tyke, I think).

Hal Thinglum Supporting Member of TMP02 Oct 2023 6:58 p.m. PST

I just turned 77.I

Michael May Supporting Member of TMP02 Oct 2023 7:22 p.m. PST

Started out building 1/72 Revell WWI aircraft when I was about 8 (and you could buy one for 50 cents). 63 now, soon to be 64. I did the three day reenactment at Gettysburg last summer and it seriously whupped my A**! Wargaming is a suitable substitute for my generation. And I'm old enough to remember when My Generation was a really kick A** song!

67 going on 25 (haha)

77 closing on 78

forrester03 Oct 2023 2:39 a.m. PST

I thought we'd hear from someone 80+ by now?

I think the 60's and 70's members [Im 66] relate to when Airfix etc were widespread in our childhoods

And wow….you're all (mostly) making me feel really young.

Keep it up.

64 and on TMP since the Ed's Hobby Hovel and Grandiosity days at least.

rampantlion03 Oct 2023 5:28 a.m. PST

Is Bob Moon a member here? Is is into his 80's. I'm a pup, I turn 60 shortly.

pzivh43 Supporting Member of TMP03 Oct 2023 6:05 a.m. PST

72 and still counting!

Choctaw03 Oct 2023 8:03 a.m. PST

I'm 59. Wow, what a bunch of geezers! lol

rmaker03 Oct 2023 8:09 a.m. PST

76

Of course, Choctaw, the early sample is biased towards the retirees who don't have to be at work/school this morning.

Wolfhag Supporting Member of TMP03 Oct 2023 9:25 a.m. PST

70 and still acting like I'm 19, except where it really counts.

Shagnasty winning at 78! Congratulations! grin

Feeling young and carefree at 59

Zeelow03 Oct 2023 4:33 p.m. PST

79 in 17 days. Can't believe it. I've outlived the men in my clan by 11 yrs so far.

Ed Mohrmann04 Oct 2023 9:15 a.m. PST

I am 82 years old

IIRC the OFM is 10 years my junior

Personal logo etotheipi Sponsoring Member of TMP04 Oct 2023 5:30 p.m. PST

Younger than any age provided here. How many years do I get to add for each kid?

ecaminis Supporting Member of TMP05 Oct 2023 5:35 a.m. PST

You have nothing on the softball group I play with. Our 92 year old just stopped playing this year

Personal logo Editor in Chief Bill The Editor of TMP Fezian05 Oct 2023 10:40 p.m. PST

Ed Mohrman in the lead at 82! grin

CeruLucifus09 Oct 2023 11:10 a.m. PST
