I have just found this in my drafts file ands can’t remember whether I ever published it. Well now it is time to name and shame. The university involved is Salford - and they simply did not reply!!!! 

Interested to swee the new ageism laws in force while filling in a form for a university post.

The application studiously refreained from asking date of birth, simply asking you to declare that you are not within six months of 65.

But on the next page, it demands secondary school details…and DATES!!!

OK, its a fair cop. I’m 56!
