This is where I am to report for my physiotherapy sessions. I was a little put out as I am 57, and hoped that I hadnt quite reached that stage yet. The letter also states that if I need transport I am to make sure I tell them its for the Older Persons Assessment Unit. My family think its hilariously funny. I have no idea the age at which you would be considerdered older lol!!LOL

LOL LOL

Sorry Barbara but that did make me laugh!
I think my family would find plenty to laugh at too if I got sent there!
I've no idea about at what age we are considered "older" but think they could at least change the name of that one!
Hope you don't get lost and have to ask the way. LOL

Love, an even older Doreen xx

I'm sorry but I had to chuckle too! It really doesn't seem the right title for someone of 57!
YES I'VE CHANGED, PAIN DOES THAT TO PEOPLE.

You would think Barbara, that they could come up with a more appropriate name I m only s mere 55 !

They changed OAP to senior citizens years ago,no doubt this name was chosen by some young high flyer trying to be clever LOL

Sorry, Barbara, but I laughed too. I'm 63, and I'd still be offended if I was required to attend somewhere with that name. And I've no doubt I'll still feel the same if I get to 83!
