I hated turning 40; the whole idea of it stank. But once I got through it, I was fine.

I've always wanted to be older, as I think it's all right to be a little bit odd when you're out of your 20s.

Even though I am in my mid-40s, I live like I am in my mid-20s.

I'm excited about turning 40. I've been an adult for a long time, but there is a difference between being an adult and being a grown-up. I'm someone's mummy now and I'm enjoying that. I feel as if I'm about to hit my peak.

Once I turned 40, my whole life changed in the most mature - not boring way but much cooler way. I feel much more like an adult.

I love being in my 40s.

There are things I'd wish weren't part of ageing. But what you gain is much more than you're giving up. I don't think you come into your own until you're 35 or so.

I don't want to spend my life in my 40s feeling bad about being in my 40s, and then all of a sudden I'm 50, and I will have missed a whole decade!

I'm too young at 50. I'm not grown up yet. There's part of everybody like that.
