What Makes You Feel Old? #2

[Kim Mild]

A contestant on the wheel was so young she'd never seen Only Fools and horses before.

I've just seen that The Fall Guy with Lee Majors premiered 42 years ago

 

[Libbylulu]

Saw a school friend who I’ve not seen since - we worked out it’s been 38 years

The other day I was in a supermarket where the automatic doors were taking a long time to open, I was waiting patiently for them to fully open before I went through and one old boy said "Come on dear!" I instantly felt about 93. Very sobering.

I went out last night. Had two gin and tonics. Then after dancing to 3 songs on the trot I thought I was going to have a coronary so had to have a sit down.

What has happened to me?

What has happened to me?

The actual going out anywhere is enough for me, let alone the rest! Used to think nothing of going to work sleep-deprived and hungover, would take a week to recover now.

It was doing my finest Tina Turner impression to Proud Mary that was the final straw.

I also forgot to mention I was home by 1030. The days of pulling an all nighter and going straight to work ... Wow. I'm tired just thinking about it.

When I'm going to bed at the same time I used to go out

 

[Pesky Tarian]

Looking at dresses for my work Christmas party and the majority are one shouldered or backless and all I can think is 'nooo I want to be warm' .

When I go ‘oof’ as I sit down.

 

[LadyMuck]

When my bucket list is now my duck it list

Jumper dress?

Jumper dress?

Good shout. I ended up buying a long sleeved green velvet dress from Vinted, très festive .

Same, and also something I can wear a decent bra with!

Reminiscing about Britannia video club and Lovefilm

Watching Christmas top of the pops and East 17's alright was realised 30 years ago

Listening (a few years ago now ) to radio 1, and DJs were playing sound alike songs - stuff in the current charts which sounded like 'oldies', one of which was by Bananarama. Except they couldn't even pronounce Bananarama (banana-rammer?), which they thought was hilarious and had no idea who they were anyway. At that point I realised I was officially too old for radio 1.

On Radio 1 this morning the young DJ introduced Driving Home For Christmas by Chris Rea but pronounced his surname Ray

 

[Pesky Tarian]

I've had a bit of a tricky shoulder since nye and couldn't figure out how I'd done it. I've just realised by repeating the action it's from showing the kids the moves to superman (Black Lace) .
