Your 4 year old asks you what sort of Dinosaur this is in the picture. When you say you dont know they reply with "but you must do mummy, when you was a little girl there were Dinosaurs"


What makes you feel you're getting old?

[sense4all]

You actually stop for the Lollipop lady ... when she waves to thank you see she's younger than you are ... lol

[~max~]

Barmaid, your reply made me laugh out loud! I even scared the cat awake, which is no mean feast! lol

[unrulyjulie]

When you have to start shaving your ears.
Cry ...cry ... I noticed large hairs growing on my ears and shaved them off.

I'm 45 and forget I'm not 25. I don't feel middle aged one little bit.
Still go to the sweet shop and buy penny chews.

One of my cousins (60) was coming to ours with her youngest grandson ((4). When he knew where he was coming he said to my cuz " Ooh Nan, I did'nt know old ladies had cousins"!

Randy, are you single...? *flutter flutter*

I remember sitting in my dad's car listening to the radio to see if the Bay City Rollers were at number 1 !!
Now I know I'm getting old when I look at a pair of shoes and think 'oh, they look sensible' or I look at a cardi and think 'oh, that looks cosy !!'

[randyraven]

max ....I'm not sharing my penny chews :-)

Lol Josie!
A few years back, I went to visit my mum and step dad (together for 15 years, not married). We went to see my aunt, and I got to play with my cousins who were 4 and 7 at the time.
The youngest was laughing, syaing "your daddy has a beard!".
I explained that my step dad wasn't actually my "daddy".

*shocked wee faces*
Oh dear....


So did your mummy get you out of her tummy by herself?
I thought babies had a mummy and a daddy?
Did John (my step dad ) steal your mummy?
Are you still my cousin?

Wished I'd never bloody said anything...lol

[Jillius]

yeah, randyraven, it must have been 1975/76 !
I absolutely loved the Rollers and had all the gear. Everything in my bedroom was tartan and I would always wear my Bay City Rollers trousers to go into town on a saturday afternoon. I understand now why my mum didn't want to walk round with me lol. I once bumped into one of my teachers and he said 'I didn't know the circus was in town !'
I used to watch Shangalang and kiss the tv screen when Les was on !!
