I gave in, no idea why the Co-Op needed it to credit me 40p so left it blank. They never chased me for it.

Oh, bit of an anarchist then, are we?

I have used creativity when asked for a phone number and have a black bin email address too.

I often put in false DoBs but on the basis they might have the right one in their system decided a blank entry was better and a dam sight quicker that scrolling. Why cannot such web sites let you type in.

They should start at 1930 so the youngsters can waste their more plentiful time spinning to their year!

It works so well because the younger you are the longer statistically you have and the longer it will take to get to your birth year.

I have on the main computer (iMac) and have to admit I much prefer it and can type much faster and with less mistakes than on an iPad type keyboard.

My keyboard is wireless!

What worries me us when they start at 2010! That's for people doing stuff for adults.

I had a wired keyboard for my old job, my own, but after I resigned they bought a wireless keyboard and mouse that works off the same dongle. Mine had mouse dongle and cable for keyboard. Left me with one USB socket. I didn't know you could get one dongle for two input devices. Technology advances all the time! Next we'll be putting glasses on instead of looking at monitors I reckon. It's coming, the future is coming fast these days!

Well I know I'm getting old because I've just bought the trousers older ppl wore when I was a kid. I'm between still modern and high waisted suit trousers, lol!
