This week in tweets - July 19th

Ok so I am bothered about this. I'VE NEVER EVER BEEN asked for ID FOR ANYTHING! It seems everyone is looking borderline for their age – apart from me?

I would happily queue up in a supermarket and forfeit the self service check out till if someone, just someone, will ask me if I'm old enough to buy that bottle of Jacobs Creek.

I would even forfeit the bottle and walk away.

Can you tell I want to be 20 years old again and I'm not looking forward to my birthday on Monday?

Every time I go to a supermarket, get served at a bar, wait in a queue for security to look me up and down to enter a nightclub I hope once, just once, someone would question that I might be of a questionable age.

So on Facebook and Twitter I asked the question: Make me jealous – what's the most ridiculous thing you've been ID'd for and and what age?

Chloë Gunning: "Strepsils at . . . 22. True story!"

Richard Burnham was left red-faced and empty-handed at a fireworks party when he was questioned trying to buy a sparkler at the age of 26!

Kirsty Richardson said she was amazed and then a bit flattered when she was questioned "trying to buy a lottery ticket at 34!"

The award for making Steve really jealous about not getting ID'd goes to @Ruth_Abbots: "I was stopped buying cigarettes at 43 because I had my hood up on my sweatshirt it was winter and pouring down. I was immensely flattered to be honest."

Proving that sometimes common sense just goes out of the window is this story.

Antony Newton was stopped buying "NON ALCOHOLIC Koppenberg pear cider in Tesco . . . I'm 27 and it doesn't matter it was non alcoholic."

Emma McKinney joined in: "My friend was 30 when she was ID'd for buying profiteroles that contained a smidgen of booze in them. Goodness knows how many you would have to consume to get drunk – and you'd probably feel quite sick trying!"

Then there's Natalie Mell who . . .wait for it . . . was ID'd trying to buy a copy of ALVIN AND THE CHIPMUNKS – it's U rated?!?

"I was about to get botox and plastic surgery and then I read a reply from someone else who has just like me has never been ID'd. Tracey Lewis – thankyou!

So when I reach one more year on this planet (July 22nd – nice plug Steve) if you see me out please just humour me – ask me to produce identification – it will make me feel great and will be the best present a – 30 something radio presenter – could ever have!
