Getting OldDrimble asks: When was it last brought home to you just how old you're getting? We last asked this in 2004, and you're eight years older now. Eight. Years.

Getting OldSeveral months ago, I had the pleasure of driving my young daughter "up north" for an interview at Birmingham University. It was a short detour to take us through Redditch where I was born and past the Terry's Springs factory where all my family used to work. Alas, the factory was gone; long since destroyed and the land turned over to grazing sheep.
I had the pleasure of telling her: "Eeeh, I remember when this was all factories."

Birmingham is not 'oop north'. Us midlanders get it from everyone - we are northern bastards to the wanky southerners and wanky southerners to the northern bastards.
