    You refer impolitely to an aggressive old woman as an ‘old bag’ and realise a) you haven’t used the term for years b) she is the same age as you

    Half way through a bath you’re planning how to get out of the tub.

    I'm getting to the stage where a crash mat alongside the bath is starting to look like a sensible precaution. But then, my baths are generally an hour and a half and involve copious alcohol consumption.

    I do the same when driving and an old person does something stupid (in my opinion) in front of me, and I think stupid old ******* should not be driving at their age...........then realise, they are probably the same age as me  :)

    You discuss Aston Villa's good start with your Brummie (and casual Villa fan) son in law and mention that they managed to win the European Cup in 1982 only to be reminded by him that he wasn't born then.

    No wonder they won, everyone else only had 11 players on the pitch.

    I must be ancient as I’m writing mine out this week obviously by ordered by she Who must be obeyed, her theory is that we might be locked down, won’t accept my counter argument that if we are locked down then we will have plenty of time to do them. I given up and for a peaceful life and to get my Sunday lunch I’m going along with her plan,

    You can remember beds made with sheets, blankets and bedspreads.

    And then the arrival of continental quilts. 

    And then continental quilts being renamed as duvets.

    Also life before fitted sheets.

    No idea but the graphic clearly showed the inside the fridge. Maybe you have to call home and get someone to open the door first before activating the app  ;)

    You wistfully remember a time when you'd watch a football match and you were younger than most of the players. But that was a long time ago. After that things weren't so bad because you were still younger than the refs. For a while. Then managers became the benchmark and finally Owners. Now there is practically no-one older than you. Only Keith Peacock and Brian Kinsey.

    The report I get on the number of short and long flushes for each of our toilets I find very helpful. Also, a line chart of the loo paper sheets by person by day of week shows a distinct blip on Sundays.

    When you check the entry prices for places and immediately check the OAP rates - and then have a good moan if the discount is rubbish!!
