    When I look at someone and think they look or act old and then realise they are younger than me.

    If he'd been alive, my dad would have been 100th today. That makes me feel old.

    He was a wonderful man who made me a Charlton supporter. Happy Birthday Dad!
    And you think he was wonderful, sounds like a cruel B’stard to me.

    I had more trouble than you would believe getting out of the bath last night.  The motel has a spa bath as well as a shower - thought I would give it a go just for fun (which it was) but getting out - what a struggle.

    Just got a new passport, I should have got the photo retouched. So much for “the camera never lies”. I think it does.

    That,my friend, should be a very big chin up moment for you.

    Just turned 28 and was informed that my birth is closer to the moon landings than to today! That made me feel horribly old. That's an event iI learnt about in history like the Normandy invasions. Not something recent!

    Recent went to get some travel vaccines, had to show my driving licence (almost due for renewal so the photo is nearly 10 years old) the pharmacist looks at me and says "blimey you've seen some life since then". Well thanks...

    I went passed an old girlfriends house today. She was about 12 years older than me, which would put her in her 70's now. That made me feel very very old
    Tempted to pop in?
    Was @DaveMehmet car parked outside? 😉

    The gross misuse by the younger generation (and sadly some of the older generation too) of the words "so", "like" and "super".  How do you feel about this weekend's game mate?  "So, I am like, super-excited to go like to the Valley like to watch the lads.  It'll be super fab and 'I'll be super super super annoying by talking shite very loudly and like massacring like the English  language.  Aaaaaaargh!!!!
    2 of my daughters say to me, saw a super movie, you should see hit. Then I think that I say that I saw a great movie. Maybe Super has replaced great.

    That’s fine. No problem there. It’s the use of super as an adjective that’s the killer. Super happy. Super excited. Super annoying. Super cool etc.  they’ve even started the double barrel ones now.  Super super excited. Waaaaah!!!!

    I tell my daughter she's seen a great film, not a super movie. She ignores me.

    Took my daughter and 2 grandsons to see new Dungeons and Dragons movie to other night. The youngest age 10 said that was a cool movie grandad. I was impressed.

    Sitting with two children at Reading dog in school, one six year old asked how old I was, I told her to guess.
    The reply came back 33……… more than happy to accept that but I told them to add 33 and 33 together, after a quick calculation together they both agreed. 
    3333 🤷‍♂️😂

    You realise that it's futile saving clothes for 'best'.

    You may as well use straight away to get any wear out of them.  :|

    Woke up this morning feeling fine, I've got birdwatching on my mind. So I got dressed: green t-shirt, green knee-length shorts and a wide-brim hat that could pass for an Australian bush hat. "Ooh, look at you" proclaimed Mrs Stig, "You look like, um, um... [complete memory loss]...um... that dead bloke".

    For the record, 'that dead bloke' turned out to be Steve Irwin.
