How about an extra one? - being engrossed on Answerbank until
1.30 AM !......LOL ;)

Oh dear, I'm only 55 and I do most of those on the list, not all but most.

As I said somewhere else recently, 2 sure signs are:

You watch a porn film and your only thought is: "That bed looks comfortable".

The noises you make getting out of bed are the noises you once made when you were in it.

[Barmaid]

Thanks for that Ann. I do 19 of them. yes NINETEEN!

Shoot me now.

[Mosaic]

Has to be one of the most facile articles ever. Clearly for filling the page when they ran out of people to hate.

[mccfluff]

talking to colleagues so young they have no idea what an opal fruit is.....

oh dear, this happened the other day (and marathons)

[Ric.ror]

I dare not even read these

[daffy654]

I'm 45 (today :)) and I had to agree with 17 of those observations.

[Barmaid]

lol I was recently discussing a new judge with a colleague

Him: He's very young isn't he?
Me: YOUNG?! I've got older knickers.

[jno]

I haven't known any songs in the top ten since the Beatles broke up. I must have been old when I was very young.

[pusskin]

Hee Hee great link Ann, love it .

[Arksided]

I'm Forty-one and do fourteen of 'em, plus about five more sometimes.

[yogasun]

I'm 66 and I agree with about 20 of them
Happy Birthday Daffy by the way!

[ChillDoubt]

Another instance is in work, when someone asks for some fluid in a syringe and they invariably ask for 10cc's.

90% of them look at me with perplexion when I say "Good band".

[Tilly2]

There are four that I don't do.
listen the the archers, fall asleep after one glass of wine, watch antiques roadshow and drink sherry
The rest I will admit to

I've got another one. Going to line dancing instead of Zumba.

[Dee Sa]

yes I do most on the list and then I suddenly got side tracked about Johnny Depp getting trampled by his horse whist making The Lone Ranger movie and I turned into a teenager again.

[baza]

no mention of owning or driving a Nissan Micra.

As my mother used to say "You're only old when the Pope looks young". Mind, she was well over 80 when she first said it.

BM , you're not old, your just conservative and careful ( though my 51 would be 'keeping chickens', so perhaps not).

I admit to "in my young days" but that's not a complaint, just astonishment that youngsters don't know what a 78 record is. I never did know peoples' names, so that doesn't count, but 16 and 17, about technology are me. Honestly, having to ask the daughter how to do the simplest thing would be embarrassing if she hadn't been claiming I was her grandfather since she was 10.

[giveup]

Hate to admit this, more than I would have thought,and like you Ann have been doing some for more years than I care to remember.(Have listened to the Archers since I was quite young)

[Baldric]

I'm 62 next month, I confess to; 6, 7, 13, 22, 34, 44 and of course 50, which is a divine right!
;o)

[wendilla]

I can relate to them all ++ and more except a glass of sherry and that is because I don't like sherry.
