    Middle age begins the very second you reply or post on this forum. 😆

    As a Maths teacher I have to reply to the person that said we live to 80 so half it and that’s 40 so anything over 40…. grrr that’s really bad maths, that would be the second half of the middle part of your group…the first part of the middle part would come equally before 40!

    I personally reckon you have to take childhood out of this as in my opinion its the middle part of your adult years not necessarily your life span.

    Childhood runs to 20 in my opinion (properly mature and ready to stand on your own two feet at 20).

    So life span of 80 years- 20 = a nice 60 years to split up to

    0-20- Childhood/adolescence
    20-40 Young adult years
    40-60 Middle aged
    60-80 Old aged/pensioner
    80+ borrowed timer

    Although it’s more a state of mind… maybe when you leave bikes and start playing golf instead?

    Middle age depends on your health and outlook, I reckon!
    I’m 44 and have had a dodgy back since an injury at the age of 19, but that didn’t stop me taking up mountain biking at 39 🙂

    Think it was Barry Cryer. Who said at 56 I’m not middle aged how many 112 year old men do you know!
