Tres Getting Old Things

Not open for further replies.
Thinking you're still 20 something when you see a fit woman or a ball rolling towards you (till you try running after them).

Fantasizing about winning the pools but planning your first stop at the dentist or podologist rather than a car show room or travel agency.

Being older than a lot of managers.
 
Sense of humour, and the subjects that reference it being very out of date.
Taste in music, cliched but a very big sign.
Rose tinted gigs, actually believing and then spouting off about how things were better yesterday.
 
Realizing that not only do policemen look younger, but prime ministers do as well.

Saying "At least I can still ....... better than kids nowadays". (We're just fooling ourselves).

The 04.00 am wee.

Knowing that my mum was right and hearing myself saying the same things she said, even though I disagreed with her at the time.

Yes it's four things, but I'm getting on a bit.

Chasing the bin men down the street in just your socks, waving a bag of rubbish furiously over your head as they blatantly ignore you and refuse to stop, leaving you with soggy feet and a full bin.
 
Grey hair, a constant sense of lifetime underachievement only alcohol can numb and being the oldest player in your team until you take up lawn bowls.
 
Moving off the dancefloor when a mosh kicks off instead of getting stuck in.

Telling someone who asks that you are 30 then realising you are actually older but you genuinely forgot by how much.
