This is a question Getting Old

Drimble 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.

Snow
Snow is a funny thing. It causes chaos, traps 'really old' people in the houses... but also another thing.

Its a licence for all adults to act like a child.

Which brings me to my story.

I was on the horseshoe pass in Wales, a popular place when it snows, as - if its snowed by you - the horse shoe pass will have had it worse.

I was getting out my car, and noticed literally hundreds of adults acting like hyped up, Christmas morning, fed on fizzy drinks - kids.

I looked to my left, and there doing dohnuts in the car park was a man hunched on a minature quad bike, tongue hanging out of his mouth in concentration with his kid squeezed into his lap holding on for dear life. This was clearly the mans licence to enable him to perform such an act, as - had he decided to get the petrol powered quad out of his car and perform it on his own, he might have looked a bit silly.

to my right was a group of 3 adults whizzing down the hill wrapped in a polethene bag....


This - may I also add, was the day I threw a snowball at my girlfriend , and quite by accident, but amazingly, managed to loop it up in the air, and due to her astonished Rabbit caught in the headlights look - directly into her mouth.... i laughed out loud until i realised it was choking her... ahhh good times.
