    You lean against something to put your socks on, pants take 2/3 stabs at each hole and trousers?  You just fall over.
    I nearly fell down the stairs trying to get my trousers on last week! It now requires a run off area!
  • you have black and white holiday snaps from a quiet/sedate Ibiza and most of the films on your Sky Box Recorder are also Black and White from the TCM, Retro Movies and Talking Pictures channels ...

    You spend hours wondering whether it’s the green bin or the brown bin the next day and get annoyed your neighbours haven’t put theirs out yet to give you a steer

    All our (6) neighbours wait for us to put ours out for guidance, being the youngest in our road has its responsibilities. 😂 I used to deliberately put the wrong one out so they all followed my lead then replace about an hour later when they’d all be out there in their wincette nightdresses swapping them over, my wife now puts the bins out. 😂😂

    Having drinks for the neighbours on the last Saturday before Christmas, something we have done since moving down. We have to start at 7.00 as one of our neighbours likes to prepare for bed at 8.15. Normally they will all have left by 9.30 although one year it did go on until after 10.00. Our first year we both went out after they’d all left, now sadly we tidy up and go to bed!

    i'll have to show my wife this - she's always amazed I can't remember which bin it is and I'm always amazed she thinks I should know - I've normally had a few by that time on a Sunday so she's lucky I remember either have to go out.

    This, I find myself going to bed earlier than I used to go out.

    When u got talked into helping out the bowls team coz they were short, found u really enjoyed it and unlike football, don’t spend the next 3 days with an aching knee and ankle 
    And also when you do!

    snooker and bowls is the future - the main injury sustained after playing them is a hangover - at the moment anyway

    Funny enough I did turn down a previous check when it was a 6'4 Male doctor with hands like shovels.

    despite all the internet porn available you still fondly remember Parade magazine (99.9% of you wont know what i'm talking about) ...
    Maybe fondly for you but the amount of hair on display was quite frightening.

    You can remember Bounty Bars and Mars Bars being 6d (2.5p), and being twice the size!

    Your neighbour say's help yourself to any fruit from the fenceline you share and you find yourself out there just before dark. Proper old school scrumping! :)

    Great thread.
    When you find yourself saying 'Great thread' as you peruse the items in your local haberdashers.
