Evidence that you're getting oldYouthful 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?

I'm 35and things that tell you you're getting old:
You use phrases that your dad uses
You can't recall every meal you've had in the last 48 hours
It gets harder to find a decent pair of slippers
You were there when retro was the future
TV presenters are younger than you
You say "you're only as young as you feel" with alarming regularity
You remember when Top of the Pops was presented by Radio 1 DJs and they played decent music
If you fancy someone in their late teens you're considered a pervert
Colleagues say how they'd hate to be in their 30s
You actually look forward to going to bed - to sleep
You remember famous bands that nobody younger than you has heard of
My wife had her 50th birthday last year (no, really)
