Silver Savers comes from the term Silver Surfers, users of the internet who aren't in the "first flush of youth" I don't see that it indicates that anyone is elderly0

It's an Americanism, the term was developed to describe people with silver - that is grey - hair who use computers and surf the net. It clearly indicates the elderly......................I'm smiling because I have no idea what's going on ...:)

No, I don't have a problem with it either. I have a few very blonde hairs mixed up with the mousy brown which my hairdresser tells me is actually dark blonde, so I don't know if I'll ever go Silver, but I am at the younger end of the board.
Maybe we should be Gold or Platinum however?Signature removed for peace of mind0 -

My Mum lived to be 94 and said that she couldn't really believe that she was really that age - she said she felt about 40 something. I don't care what I get called (tho I somewhat dislike 'pensioner') I will still dye my hair red if I want.0
