haha, if only it was that easy.
Yeah, I think everyone gets asked for proof of age now, but I think it's more due to the fact that it's a lot stricter these days so that even if they think you're quite above the legal age they will still ask. Maybe they were trying to flatter you. :P
Some people just do it to be a pain though, like that old lady in the spar shop who refused to serve me 4 cans of john smiths.

oh yeah. ok. well in the u.s. the drinking age is 21 i guess in england is 16? 18? i could not possibliy look 16 or 18, 21 *maybe* in the dark, and of course there are many 21 year olds that look aged beyond their years, but that is not my fault.

now, thinking about it, when i was 15-16 i was into competitive sports, so i was a beast. then i got into the university & fattened up because i didn't have time for sports-- it was study all day. but the point... oh yes the point is that i feel im a much more interesting person than when i was younger. i'm saner too, and i don't have to look to the world to tell me who i am.

of course there is the wrong path as well. some people get stupider & stupider as they age until they turn into zombies. the point i guess is to make time your ally, rather than your enemy-- to ... cultivate yourself instead of letting life destroy your soul with a soulless job and a drone-like existence. so as time passes you become more yourself, rather than the other way around. so i'm hoping than when i'm on my deathbead i'm going to be more myself than i am today.

does that make sense??
