Turning into your parentsUnable to hold back the genetic tide, I find myself gardening in my carpet slippers, asking for a knife and fork in McDonalds and agreeing with the Daily Telegraph. I'm beyond help - what about you?
Thanks to b3th for the suggestion

My parents are late 60s, early 70s.Between 1960 - 1981, my parents used to buy chart records on a regular basis. Everything from Lonnie Donegan through the Stones, Beatles, Kinks, glam-rock, some disco, Queen, ELO and even obscure one-off records like Clive Dunn's "Grandad" and Telly Savalas with "If".
A thoroughly eclectic taste in music. Then in the 80s, it dried up. They stopped buying records and the car began to fill up with country & western cassettes.
I couldn't understand it. What a complete an utter u-turn.
Last week, I downloaded the tracks from a compilation of Don Williams. I burned them to a CD and now I listen to it in the car.
I feel ashamed that I enjoy listening to it.

I can do one worse that that......George Jones and Tammy Wynette.
Why wasn't I told that this would happen?
