I honestly sometimes forget my age, if someone says to me how old are you i will say "err...17" and it sounds a bit false, but in reality im just thick. Especially soon after your birthday you are so used to saying your previous age you have to correct yourself.

No-ones that bad a liar :p

Anyway, they don't seem to care what age I am. I remember buying South Park over the counter at Blockbuster and the only question he asked was the routine "Are you 15?"

I was about 12 or 13 at the time (my voice was still quite high and I wasn't very tall) but I just replied casually "of course" as I looked him in the eye

Same goes for cinemas, if they ask your age and you reply you're 18 then they ask you "when's your Birthday?", it isn't subtle at all when you've pre-planned an age that would make you 18 and you rattle it off too quickly and tensely

Be casual and just look them in the eye

It's alright if you rehearse it. I tried to blag my way into getting a junior train ticket once. When I was asked my age I stumbled ever so slightly with the year because I was caught completely by surprise. It wasn't a very noticeable stumble either. It took maybe an extra half a second in between numbers. That was all it took for him to suss me out.

That was that and I had to pay the adult price.

As if i'd do that!

If someone says to me are you 18? and i say yes then i start to go red. I cant help it its just automatic. Stupid blood rushing to the surface of the skin.

I think it depends on your confidence.

If i am trying to buy something and i am too young for it i would start looking shifty without noticing.

Im not a very good blagger.

I do hope you really didn't swear. Mommy always said to be polite to others, unless they want to kill or rape you.

It can work the other way as well though. I've managed to get into a few 18 movies at the cinema without so much as a raised eyebrow, despite the fact that I'm not even 17 for a few more days. I wouldn't say I really looked like I was 18 either.

Suppose it comes down to whether or not you get one of those spastics who likes to do their job properly. God I hate that type...

Which shops do you reckon has fit people serving?

I reckon Virgin have some nice girls most of the time. Most of the music shops have tasty girls, even if some are a bit gothy.

Woolworths are always minging it seems. I think you have to be a minger to even get an interview there!
