What makes you feel old?

[Ian Key]

What makes you realise you are older than you think you are?

The first episode of Eastenders was 41 years ago

You remember watching Apollo 13 on the news and not at the cinema

You watched England win the World Cup

All of the above.

Chokes in cars

Don't forget the wooden clothes peg or mother handbag hanging off the choke knob

Always feeling tired
needing a nap in the afternoon
waking up with a migraine and very sore neck
getting up without groaning is an impossible task

Remember watching man's first steps on the moon while still in high school
and
remembering the jingle for the introduction of decimal currency in Australia

yet
Not remembering what day or mth it is
Not remembering the address where we live (this happened this morning, couldn't remember the number)
can't find something I've just had in my hand, making every job take three times as long ....

I know most of it is due to the MVA 20 something yrs ago, but it still reminds me I'm not getting old, I'm already there

Are you sure some of that isn't made up ..... what's an Eastender? Can't remember watching Apollo 13 .... and did England really win a World Cup .... and at what?
My memory is failing rapidly, but I can't remember the last time Australia didn't win the Ashes

The Mirror.

That happens if you've spent to much time looking at The Sun.

At least it's not the Daily Mail

I learnt to drive and took my test in my mother’s Hillman Imp. The examiner was a bit distracted at seeing the road through some holes by his feet but passed me anyway
I loved that car

Eastenders is a British soap opera, it started at the same time as your Neighbours.

Neighbours only lasted for 40 years, but it still had 2000 more episodes than our Eastenders.

I can't remember what I had for tea last night but can still remember all the words to the "Shake and Vac " advert. Which way to Switzerland ???? I think its straight East from here with 2-3 fast charges.
