I'm 41 in a few days time and I still don't feel like I've grown up yet! Every now and then I find myself doing 'grown up' things and it really shocks me.

Anyway, I have some good advice for you - in Greece they don't start counting ages at 0 like we do, they start from the day they are born as 1. That means that if you were to find yourself talking to a Greek person who was born on the same day as you in the same year, they would have had their 30th this time last year.

All you have to do now is find the Greek person who was born on the same day! By the time you've done that plenty of time will have passed and you'll have forgotten it was your birthday in the first place.

Unless of course, you are Greek, in which case you can knock a year off and not go through your 30th until next year.
