I WILL START WITH 2
DOUBLE IT IS 4
ADD 5 IT IS 9
MULTIPLY BY 50 IT IS 450
ADD 1500 IT IS 1950
ADD 511 IT IS 2461
I HAVE HAD MY BIRTHDAY SO I SUBTRACT 250 WHICH IS 2211

THE LAST TWO DIGITS IS MY AGE 69 AND THE FIRST DIGIT IS THE NUMBER THAT I STARTED WITH

Yep - my number was wrong (not enough fingers obviously!! lol) - it was actually 938 ... which is right, because I started with 9 and I am actually 47 ... but 38 sounds HEAPS better!!!! (just jokes - I am 38).
Thanks Bob - nice little numbers trick ...
