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?

And another thing (or 2)
Seeing the look on my youngest son's face (he's 20, the old fart) when I say I like his latest album (and copying it to mp3 to listen to on the tube)
Not enjoying a toke as much as I used to...
Trying to keep up with you whipersnappers' interweb language (mostly failing)
Realising that although I thought I might be a bit too old to buy "God save the Queen" way back in 1977, that was 27, yes 27 years ago...fookin' 'ell. (Oh, Sex Pistols for you kids that don't know)
(In similar vein, Peter Hammill's "Pushing 30" more than 20 years ago....)
And like others, checking my messages for spelling & punctuation. (Although I'm slacker with grammar, I've always split infinitives)
