What are the 7 signs of ageing?

[Ningishzidda]

The first sign of ageing is when you go to someone's funeral and wonder if there really is anything after you die.

I know what you mean but whilst my dad is still alive I do hear his voice in my head saying the same things to me as I now say to my lads..

aye i do that too....especially my lads music....just noise i say to him....my Dad used to say the same about my taste in tunes....punk was something that got his back up...now its rap with me

1. Forget who people are.
2. Forget what you're supposed to be doing.
3. Can't get out of a chair without a wincing grunt.
4. Can't bend down to tie your shoelaces.
5. Politicians and your GP look 12.
6. After a long bike ride, you can't get off your bike.
7. Your children start helping you.

Olay Revitalising Cream has a lot to do.

Remembering when you could go out with a tenner sup a load of ale and have enough for a fish supper on the way home....Happy days

Only No. 7 is applicable to an ageing adult. All the rest happen at nursery school.

Impotence. It's not a complaint of mine but someone we see regularly was outed one time in the most embarrassing way. He's the same age as me but hasn't taken as good care of himself as he should. It was a big European game and we were right next to him at the turnstile about to go in when a very attractive young lady walked past. He said to his mate, as lads often do in such testosterone-fuelled situations, 'phoar, I'd give her a good seeing to.' but had momentarily forgotten he'd brought his wife along! She was immediately behind him and said, loudly enough for everyone in the immediate vicinity to hear clearly, 'Give her one? Give her one? How are you supposed to be able to do that when you haven't been able to shag me for the past two years?' The look on his face was all we needed to see this was evident;y the truth!

Tutting at the silly skirts and shoes worn by girls. They cannot be warm or comfortable

Me too since I was 41 - much better than a house!

there's no saving you now... way too late, next you'll be watching "last of the summer wine" repeats and arguing with the characters...

Hang on, I may be getting old, but I'm not that old!

(LotSW was one of those shows that made me wonder who actually watched it! It was supposed to be very popular, but apart from the lovely scenery around Holmfirth, I couldn't see any point to it.)

OK - you might (just) be savable! or is it salvagable?

 

[Cycleops]

When you bend down to pick something up you think, what else can I do whilst I down here?

Well, you salvage old wrecks so it must be that one!
