Creativity in birthday ageing riddles

Submitter: Yan Grange
Description: One of the most valued traditions at the ASTRON daily coffee are the treats (often cookies) brought by our colleagues.

When being in such a spot light, many will be asked the question one is only allowed to ask someone on their birthday about age. Some circumvent the issue of having to answer this by writing down riddles for their colleagues to solve.

ASTRON's one and only Marcel Loose put the bar for creativitiy and sense of mathematics high, by putting down the riddle in the photo. Can you make up how old he is now?

(the riddle actually has two answers of which, by coincidence, the other is the age of the author).
