    When you refer to an old couple you saw on the train and then realise they are probably younger than you

  • A young woman in the swimming baths - had a couple of kids in tow - was telling me how she told her kids about the benefits of swimming 

    She said, 'It is something you can do when you're young and something (whilst unfurling her hand towards me) that you can do for your whole life'. 

    I mean, I'm no youngster, but I ain't finished yet!
  • People keep holding the door open for me and calling me sir.
  • When your idea of a night out, is a short walk to the corner shop to get some milk.
  • I think I am old. I handed my notice in a few months back. New job next month.
    Just had a teams chat with our hr admin, she said she wanted to come in a say goodbye. I’ve told her I’m In everyday next week but I’ll probably sneak off early next Friday. 
    She told me that I leave next Wednesday. I’ve told everyone Friday 27th and drinks in the pub lunchtime. 
    I think I’m getting old and stupid.

    When young women say things to you like "you alright, sweetheart" in that patronising voice.
  • When you buy things before the one you have runs out or breaks. I'm not talking, milk, bread, toilet roll, I mean car tyres, exhaust and brakes, even a spare pair of trainers to keep in the wardrobe, exactly the same as the ones you already have!
  • Waking up at a “sensible” time on the day after your 60th without a headache or feeling sleepy!
