Think you're right there - it's when it only occasional delights and often terrifies you that you need to worry...

We have to date a total of 1,345 years between 27 people, which according to my calculator tells me the average age is:-

49.81 years young.

Bought my first one in 2005 when I was 41 and bought another this year as I'm fast approaching 50, hopefully I'll be around long enough to enjoy a few more.
