Feel somewhat left out, having been born during WW2!
|
I now feel very privileged to still have both my pre-WW2 parents alive.

Cornish Cockney... Likewise
|
I feel a similar privilege in having a family member still alive who was born during the first world war.
Unsurprisingly, she does not remember it, as she was very young at the time. |
It was quite disconcerting recently to realise that the whole Millennium fuss can't be used as a reference point to some young adults now that 20 year olds had only just been born then.
|
Half the population born since Thatcher came to power is the one that shook me.
And only a third of the population older than me, and two thirds younger - I'm four months younger than dg but that makes me feel my age. |
Also that 21% born this century have no concept of the world before mobile phones and learnt about 9/11 in school.
