  • You have to get up in the middle of the night for a piss, even though you had one just before you got in bed. After your 4am tinkle, whilst washing your hands in the bathroom basin, you glance into the bathroom mirror and realise that your nasal hair is in urgent need of attention. You then look at the rest of your ugly, haggard old face and realise that you have a small forest growing out of each ear and eyebrows like Norman Lamont.

    I am 31 - why is this happening to me already?!
  • Remembering the grotesque own goal by Dave Shipperley in the 1-2 defeat to Orient on 31st March 1972 as you stand there waiting to pee.
  • having a piss and a quick shake and then some dribble still comes out after you've put the old boy back in your pants

    Wanting to Squeeze out a fart but instead squeezing out a turd!
  • struggling to remember the last time your team got 3 points.
    it's either dementia or you're charlton.
  • employing people young enough to be your kids !
  • Hope I die before I get old
  • It's going up the stairs, remembering what you went for, but not doing it because you spotted something else to do.
  • It's realising that all the people you work with are younger than your kids !

    When trying to relate to a young person, you use the words 'street cred'.

    Weekends aren't for getting drunk, they're for watching countryfile and sorting the garden out.out.

  • Amazing that this has popped up when i am 49 today and have been told that 50 is the new 40 so officially still in my 30's!
  • when you still think young people, or yoof as you call them, still wear their jeans down past their arse to try and look cool.

    This is not mid 90's america.
  • You will see some clown dressed like that every day in early 21st Century London. I don't know if they think they look cool or not though.
  • I think there's one main thing that really lets you know you're on the back 9 and that's when your criteria for what makes a great bar is no longer that it's full to bursting with braying idiots shouting rubbish at each other about Hollyoaks - in fact it's the opposite suddenly applies, the perfect boozer contains ample seats, good beer, no wait for service while some tosswit with a ridiculous gel filled hairdo tries to pay for three strawberry mojitos half on a debit card half in luncheon vouchers and no bass heavy "music" shat out by a computer.
  • When you meet people and they ask "Are you retired?"! I'm 52 FFS!
  • When you look in the mirror and realise that you now have more than 1 chin to shave!!
  • When you discuss with your wife how enjoyable Midsomer Murders was.

    Hangs head in shame.....

    When you can't tell male from female!!
  • White hairs in weird places.
  • When you remember seeing the grandfather of a current pro footballer playing.
  • As a 22 year old I find myself moaning about how Curly Wurlys have gone from 15p to 23p, yet have decreased in size. And Cadbury's Animals have less chocolate on now than when I was a kid.

    You're not the only one!
  • Whenever im out on a piss up my first prefered pub is always an old mans pub because you can always get served quickly. There are no young idiots asking for mojitos or cocktails just good honest ale. There is nothing worse than waiting 30 mins to be served whilst stone cold sobre! Im 29 by the way......
  • When you look at Daphne from Eggheads and think 'there's something about you woman. if I was 10 years younger I'd........'
