You know you're getting old when.....

[MikeHartley]

I thought I'd start a thread for a little nostalgia and perhaps some humour.
I'll kick off:
You know you're getting old when boot cut jeans used to be called flares.

You know you're getting old when your back goes out more often than you do!

 

[AntC43]

When you look at the music charts and have absolutely no idea who most of them are.

I'm only 41!

When you grow a scruffy grey beard.

 

[Ted]

When it takes all night to do what you used to do all night.

When you grow a scruffy grey beard.

Oi... I've just done that for Winter... :fail

 

[Carrsey]

When you realise you have turned into your parents (who were very old and knew nothing)..

When you grow a scruffy grey beard.

Ha ha...I know what you mean...I cut mine off this morning.

 

[KillerHERTZ]

You agree with THIS thread.

When Nestle was pronounced 'nessels', as in 'Nessels Milky Bar'.

And you look 10 years younger!

I started a refurb on a property in the city last week that I re-furbished in 1985. I was an apprentice then.
That makes me feel ancient.

....Tuesday of last week wasn't "back in the day".

You dress for comfort rather than style.

I saw that in the paper. The response of the owner of the building company was incredible.

When an "all night session" means not having to get up for a pi$$ before the alarm goes off.

A letter to an agony aunt column read: "When I was 18, I couldn't bend it with both hands; now that I'm 70, I can bend it with my little finger. Does this mean I'm getting stronger?"

..…....when you go to a parents evening at your 'old school' you left 33 years ago and the teachers look far too young to teach.

 

[Darrell]

Being back in the UK now for a few weeks means I have been introduced to daughters of my mates. These are daughters I last saw 9 years ago. They are now in their late teens and early twenties.

Need I say more?

Brown (taupe and beige specifically) become the default colour for 'casual' clothing. And you don't see any problem with socks and sandals.
