Aged 36 and I have bought my first brand new TV.

Bloody love it too. Plus, with the experience that my humble age brings, I know the novelty will have worn off by Monday!

I was 37 before I bought a computer (2 weeks ago). Just salvaged crap from work until now! 😆

Yes but do you get the choice of what channels you watch? 🙂

I was 26 before I owned a mobile Phone

i was 28 before i owned a computer

When I was a kid my folks were bohemian artists. They had two televisions. One on top of the other. On one the picture worked but it had no sound, the other had no picture but good sound. You can see where this is going.

I am 40 and have not yet….

You’re only 36? I’d always had you down as late forties/early fifties. Fair dues.

We had similar, but one in each alcove of the lounge.When the adverts came on, the nearest to the one with a picture turned it over so we could watch the picture until the adverts finished. Both were B/W too…
My folks were just tight.

You guys are old!

42 before I bought a computer, made do with hand-me-downs before that!

I was 37 before I stopped cupping my hand and wafting my own farts up for a sniff. Mind you I was only 37 a month ago, so I might treat myself again soon.

I was 32 before I knew that raisins were shrivelled up grapes.

I was 36 when I received my first debit card.
Still never had a cheque book or credit card (or debt!).
Used cashback in the pub for the first time the other day too.

You guys are old!

& you missed out on all the good sh1t FACT !

OP, does it have an on/off switch?

Convinced I didn’t like tomatoes or cheese, I didn’t have pizza until I was 23.

Similarly, school catering attempts at curry put me off that until I was 19; at university in Bradford from the age of 17 it was a bit of a problem… for a while anyway

Computer programmer since 1990, it was about 2002 before we got one at home.

60 before I got a railcard.

I bought myself a brand new TV two years ago for the first time in my life.

I used to watch 15″ analogue TV (bought 2nd hand for £20) until they all gone digital think it was 3 years ago or something like that.

30 something before I decided I liked baked beans.

9 before I bought a packet of fags (it was another couple years before I learned to inhale though…)
26 before owning a car
38 before started climbing
48 before I passed my bike test.
Never bought a TV (or seen a Star Wars movie…)

I’d always had you down as late forties/early fifties.

Thanks, um…I think?!

OP, does it have an on/off switch?

Yes, although it’s at the back, strangely.

43 and purchased my first brand new TV last month, I do have a graphics monitor good enough to grade moving image on though that was 4x the price of my sony TV that I did watch Netflix/DVD’s on.

I have never ordered a take away pizza though.

I was X before I did Y for the first time. 😳

I was 32 before I took an e.

Any younger and I would probably be dead by now, but the mid 90’s were indeed ‘Pukka’! 😉

I’m 32 and we just bought our first laptop. All previous were hand me downs or work ones.

Also 32 when I got my first fastish car.

Plan to be 33 when I buy my first DH bike.

I’m 37….

I’m an IT consultant….

I’ve never bought a computer in my life.

I’ve owned 3 – Commodore 64 my parents bought me, a 5 year old Dell desktop I pinched from work (before I worked in IT) and I kept for a week and finally now I’ve got a 4 year old Duel Core 2 based desktop we stream Netflix on and store photos etc – it came into work as an XP machine for scrap wearing a licence code for Win7 so I banged in 4gb of ram and a new hdd.

I’ve got a high-end laptop for work but rarely bring it home I can’t be arsed with them out of work – I prefer devices for web and occasionally a bit of PS3.

58 and no telly (so far)

40 never bought a telly or a brand new car

I was 45 before I owned a mobile phone.

I never tried mushy peas ’til I was about 35…

Can I add first carpet to my OP now.

*gets a bit excited*

I’m 42 and I’ve never bought (and don’t own) a computer/laptop

I’ve never bought a new TV or a new car (had a few company cars new though)

I’ve never bought a microwave, toaster or a kettle.

Until last week I’d never bought a new sofa, but something had to give 🙂

I was 40 before I had my first chip butty

I’ ll be 50 this year & I’ve not yet had a Macdonalds.
I’ve had a motorbike since the age of 17 (not the same one) & can’t imagine being without one.

I was 47 when I got my first passport – which reminds me, it’s run out, need to get a new one!!

I was 18 before I flew in an aeroplane.

I was 20 before I landed in an aeroplane.
