    Cheers for the feedback boys and girls.
    It all started because a mate of mine was applying to switch from TAG to a new roll at Ogilvy and was told they almost didn't consider him because he was too old (29).
    I'm glad to hear you think the work wont dry up anytime soon.
    I've been doing it for 8 years so far and still loving it ( the cynicism is definitely on its way though).

    I think i'm actually just a little concerned i'll end up only doing direction and no production – yes a better salary, but Its the actual construction of work that i get the most kick out of.
    I dont know too many 30-40 yr olds who can afford a family and remain in a a designer roll - but that might just be the little microcosm i work in.

    So, yeah, good to hear there are some old folks out there flying the flag.
