Time makes fools of us all
I HAVE to mow the lawn every weekend.

I could spend hours in B&Q, Wickes, Focus, Homebase etc

Shoes must be taken off on the doormat.

Use a coaster, for gods sake use a coaster.

I know when my home insurance needs renewing.

The sight of a light on in an empty room really boils my piss.

I always know where the cheapest petrol station is.

“Do you have to stomp across the landing like a herd of elephants?”

I feel lazy if I am in bed past 8am

I don’t watch much TV as it is all “Bloody rubbish”

A pint of beer should not cost more than £3

“If you’re cold put a jumper on”

I wake up to Radio 2

Before leaving the house or going to bed, I have to check that all doors are locked, the gas is off, taps aren’t running and all unnecessary switches are turned off. I may have to go back and re-check.

Slippers are ace.

I see myself in your responses.
Lawn - check.

DIY - check.

Doormat - not so much.

Coaster - Only because our new oak table turns up on Saturday!

Home insurance - only because I've been in my new house since November.

Lighting an empty room - DO YOU THINK I'M MADE OF MONEY?!?

Cheap petrol - To be fair I knew this when I was 17.

Stomping - Solid floors = no stomping!

Lazy - Never!

Rubbish TV - It's getting worse every year. I can't believe I just said that.

Beer - Why isn't it £2 anymore?!

Jumper - sensible, especially as I now pay the gas bill.

Radio 4 for me, I think I just skipped middle age and went straight for my sixties at the tender age of 29.

Locked doors - Nope, I live in a respectable neighbourhood, and I also forget to.

Slippers - see jumper and gas usage.

Ha! I dont feel so different and strange now.
However, I am jealous of your ability to not care if the door is locked.

Of course you're not!
I'm in my mid twenties, and seeing your list produced a lot of agreement.

Aside from slippers, I prefer bare feet. And staying in bed past 8 am, damn I do love a good lie in when I can.
A lot of those things are just to keep a nice looking home and save money, what's not to like?

Also I gave up TV the moment I found the internet. Never looked back (apart from maybe QI and some movies).

^All of this^
And I didn't realise beer had got so expensive either.

Same here
except I'm also Radio 4 rather than Radio 2.

At least I'm over forty.

[EDIT: Damn it, no! I am forty! I am not OVER forty! I've got till August...]
