955i Posted August 8, 2010 Report Share Posted August 8, 2010 A recurring thing as I am getting older is that a song will come on that I haven't heard for 15 years and I can remember every drumbeat and note in a guitar solo, but I can't remember what I did with my car keys 30 seconds ago! How does that work then? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
timmytree Posted August 8, 2010 Report Share Posted August 8, 2010 A few more signs of getting older. All policemen look 14 yrs old. You start to think that support stockings look good. You find long queues of traffic behind you when you're out in the car. You preferred Terry Wogan on radio 2 The grandchildren take turns pulling the bristles off the end of your nose. You start a sentence with '' I remember when'' When you go to party there is a chair put ready for you. A blackberry is something you eat. You can't balance on the wii fit board and dont know why you should anyway. You can remember when England had a football team instead of a herd of overpaid egotistical ballerinas. You like woodchip wallpaper. You spend more time in the shed looking at baccy tins and jars full of rusty nails and screws and a can of 3 in 1 oil priced at 3/6d. You go down the garden in your slippers. The missis doesn't expect you to talk after sex. You have to come downstairs to remember what you went upstairs for. Everyone expects you to be grumpy. You stand tall, pull your tummy in, chest out and hold the pose to impress the blonde next door. She sniggers, your back goes, you cough and your trousers drop to your knees revealing baggy grey boxers with ''sex god'' on them. she has to help you in to your chair then spends 20 minutes on her mobile telling her mates about the dear old chap next door! A bit of advice for the younger members. Never put off til tomorrow what you can do today because if you do it today and like it, you can do it again tomorrow!

Chard Posted August 8, 2010 Report Share Posted August 8, 2010 You spend more time in the shed looking at baccy tins and jars full of rusty nails and screws and a can of 3 in 1 oil priced at 3/6d. That's very expensive for a can of 3 in 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

longshanks Posted August 9, 2010 Report Share Posted August 9, 2010 Same as Shaun i was 50 on Wednesday, but i was quite pleased to receive a tidy sum of money from various peeps.So there i was jabbering away to visiting relatives about what shooting and fishing gear im going to buy, when the wife chips in with the suggestion that maybe i should get some incontinance pants, nose hair trimmer, and hearing aid before i go rushing into anything else!!! Damn, i was feeling alright about the whole thing up until then Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dead-Eyed Duck Posted August 10, 2010 Report Share Posted August 10, 2010 (edited) A very useful response is always "I ain't young enough to know everything" Repeat it often enough to those around you, and you can see them flinch before they ask the question.... Which eventually makes them ask someone else those stupid questions that they don't want the answer to anyway - cos they know better than you.
