When you stop to stare at deserted building sites on a Sunday.
When you go for a shave in the morning and think "that bloke staring back at me looks like my Dad."
When you start avoiding certain pubs because "that's where all the youngsters go" ... and you catch yourself saying it!
A 4.30 am piddle breaks your sleeping pattern

When dan_bo comes on a forum ride and says "So_and_so is getting on a bit, you know, about 40!"
Are you going to tell us who 'so and so' is? When you meet another forum member called 'old n slow' and he looks quite young to you

Apparently you are old when you think this looks ridiculous rather than cutting edge trendy.
OK I'm convinced!
I'm old OK?
But in 30 years time this guy is going to look at the picture and die of embarrassment.

It's somebody dan_bo knows who is getting on a bit, you know, 40-odd!
You find a picture of your dad from WWII and he looks young enough to be the son you never had!

Oi! I was 12!
But then you think, students starting university this year, were born in 1993. Then, I really was a grown up.

Your old when you find that the area you were brought up is now being buldozed and re-built for the third time (Scotswood, Newcastle on Wednesday) and you think fondly of outside toilets in the back yard. Then you get home and enjoy a nice hot shower instead of getting the tin bath off the wall.
