The Shed

Ok Folks, I have taken the liberty of starting off another Grey Room...please feel free to come up with some suggestions for the new name...

I hope the original Grey Room entries are being archived and held for posterity. I suggest we publish it as a book. A few hundred pages of bullsh*t maybe, but that doesn't seem to have stopped Jordan selling loads of books.

Hah! I thought the original GR had been closed as we'd finally managed to offend someone

We need to come up with some serious 'Grey' issues to discuss toot-sweet; it's all too easy for a thread like this to fade away when re-opened as a newie

An idea for a new name?

Change?

Here?

You'll be making the tea next!

Obviously I'm traumatised by the death of the original GR, and regret having not contributed much to it, but as my 40th birthday looms - well in 5 months, I like to think I will have plenty of grey issues to discuss here.

In Spinal Tap tradition, the even greyer room does raise the question how much more grey can one get? and the answer is none...

None more grey...

I wish there was a Middle Youth chat thread on here.

I'm too old (and too much of a wimp!) for the Suede Room.  I'd like to think I'm too young for here... but that might be wishful thinking!

Too old to rock and roll but too young to die.  I like to think that I fit in between the two categories as well.  The occasional silver hair shows up from time to time, but no outwardly grey appearances as of yet.   I was alive when prog was at its height, but not nearly old enough to have been affected by it until years later.

Yes, Pat, but you're male.   (It shouldn't make a difference, but it sort of does, I think... )  The PA youth movement can look up to you as a role model...  As for me... I fear they'd consider me matronly.

(I guess most people our age are diligently WORKING instead of having inane online conversations!  I have a stupid job that doesn't really require me to think too hard - and also I get lots of time off during the summer.  Now, what's your excuse...?! )

well, my feelings on the re-naming of this room are that each of our beloved regulars should come up with a suggestion.  Whichever one which meets with the pre-requisite number of grunts, sighs and strains of approval, should be handed over, either to Jim or Dean for an official naming ceremony...

As long as you don't call it 'Just For Men'...

In that case the "Sharp and Shiny Things Room".  Actually, I think that this says it all: Older, BudWiser room.
