This is a question Evidence that you're getting old

Youthful as I am, I realised yesterday that I no-longer know, or care, who is #1 in the charts. Furthermore, it takes all day to get rid of a hangover and I now seem to have a profound interest in gardening. Worst is that I now use words like 'furthermore'.

What makes you think that you are getting old?

<SIGH>
I am now experiencing the third generation of friends' relationships: they're getting divorced. i haven't even got a girlfriend!
I'm starting to wear beige. Beige slacks, brown boots and a brown suade jacket
My GP is younger than me
I worry about not having a pension
I go "owowowow" when I stand up due to a bad back and it takes me five minutes before I can walk upright. But i don't complain....
I like listening to Terry Wogan on my way to work
I drive a knackered Orion
I can't believe it's nearly Christmas again
My friends at my local are 40+
I stop in the middle of the room because I've forgotten what it was I was going to do
I own three copies of Dark Side of the Moon: an original, the 20th Anniversary and the 30th Anniversary editions. Add to that that I've seen Pink Floyd in concert twice and the last time was 10 years ago!
I love my cat
I'm getting into "proper" photography (with film and stuff)
I want a dark room
Or a shed
I get very distressed and irate when people don't use the apostrophe properly
Kids in the office wonder what the hell I'm talking about when I mention using log tables at school
When my dad was 35, i was 11. Jesus.
I want to buy a dinner jacket (tux)
tv.cream.org is one of my favourite web sites
I saw Star Wars (ANH) when it came out in the cinema the first time round
I can say stuff like "Do you remember the drought of '77?", or "where were you when Elvis died?"
I remember Neighbours before Kylie and Jason were in it
I just don't get Bo Selecta (I actually think it's shite)
Last year I bumped uglies with an "older woman". She was 47 (cute though) and her daughter was the same age as me
Any female under the age of 25 is a "girl", not a "woman"
Me and some mates are off to Amsterdam next year for a stag do. And planning where to go to shoot arty photos instead of what sort of grass to get muntied on
All my socks are black
I can iron a shirt
It really doesn't bother me if I am not considered "cool"
One of my favourite phrases is "little bastards, bring back National Service, that'll sort them out..."

There are tons more but I've gone on for too long. Been lurking for ages and kinda making up for it!
