This is a question Turning into your parents

Unable 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

But seriously
Music today is rubbish isnt it? Its a Synthezised drums and breathy singing, or blokes singing about how rich they are. Not like in my day, proper music then, you could hear the words. Proper musicians. It was a craft.

Funny you should mention that...
...but like most people my age, I'm 31.

The only time I feel my age is when it comes to music.

I remember as a not-quite-3-year-old getting really excited cos ABBA were going to be on Top Of The Pops (and getting the Super Trouper album for christmas in 1980 - which I still have, on vinyl, still plays although a little worn now). I remember aged about 5 or 6 on Thursday nights when aforementioned Top Of The Pops came on the telly (7pm, BBC1, Thursday nights!) I'd turn all the lights off and imagine I was in a disco, dancing manically around the front room with the light from the telly looking a bit like disco lights. (Well, it was pretty convincing to a 6-year-old!)

And now? Well a few months back I let one of my younger friends (just turned 20) play his new CD in my car... N-Dubz. The biggest pile of complete and utter wank I'd ever heard. Nearly caused me to have a crash it was that bad. Well I went straight back to country & western!
