Thought for today - 1 June

I am always prepared to admit my age. :D
An "admission" suggests some sort of guilt. Can I suggest you use the world "declare" instead?

An excellent suggestion, catgate. :D

Having had a little think I am now of the opinion that "declare" suggests a cricket team giving up because they have gone far enough. So we need to find another more appropriate word.

avow

affirm

assert

verify

confirm

We need that book that Alanho was waving at us the other day.
