Have you all noticed that it is always the older generation that do well in trials and don't shreek and yell like babies. i.e Edwina, Jennie Bond, Janet Street Porter, Carol Thatcher and Kim Woodburn to name but a few. It just shows how pathetic the youth of today have become. And no i'm not old and siding with my generation!!

well I am older but I do run a large team of charity volunteers of all ages { who are over 18 } for over 25 years and there is a divide.

As I am working alongside these volunteers it does affect who I choose as I don't want to be stuck with a load of clock watchers.

the more mature women always do well apart from mckeith
