you know you're getting on when.....

[dellzeqq]

for days my friend Rob wondered when his elderly neighbours were going to fix that awful beeping. He resolved to approach them, and, politely ask them if he could help.

It was only when he was taking the rubbish out to the wheelybin in the front garden that he realised that he hadn't removed the battery from the old smoke detector he'd thrown away earlier in the week. That was when the chap next door appeared, complaining about the awful tinnitus that had been driving him around the bend........

I got the binoculars out the other day and was traipsing up the street hunting down the lesser spotted burglar alarm woodpecker

Your son insists on buying the next round (he doesn't do it too often).

You think about posting a link to some music on Noodley's Friday night session, and decide not to. The reason? It was from 1977, which is before many people on here were born.

In 1977 I was 10 or 11, depending on when in '77 we're talking about.
It's my grey hairs that are getting me down

Don't misjudge the tastes of younger members of CC. My nineteen year old son covets my vinyl collection which starts in the late sixties and covers the seventies and eighties too.

He's absolutely convinced that it's been bequeathed to a colleague and is totally pissed off that it's not coming his way upon my demise.

It's been the best and longest (five years) wind up of mine that he's been the victim of at chez Levy.

What's wrong with 1977? I've posted stuff from the 50's and 60's

You know your getting on when you can remember something from your childhood with total recall and clarity but cant remember what you were doing half an hour ago.

Only just ...

... when you are tying your shoelaces and you look around to see if there is anything else you can do when you are down there.

Dave R, there is nothing wrong with 1977. It is just that it made me feel like I am getting on, because some peeps on here are so young.

Where you in Coventry in 1977?

This occured to me 10 years ago or so...
I started work at my prervious employer in 1977 (funny how that date keeps cropping up)
In 1997 i found i was working with guys who were'nt even born when i started there.

Another one...a youth had given my wife some verbal when i was about 35.
I went out to have words, found him and started a bit of verbal....at some stage i think he thought i was going to lump him.....and he was off like a rabbit.
I looked at him dissappearing into the distance...i thought, i couldnt keep up even if i wanted to
