Time - it's a bastard ain't it?
I've just been to get some provisions in for tonight. Walking around the aisles I noticed a familar looking person that it took me a while to place, then it smacked me in the face.

I had worked with her around 15 years back in the DSS. Back then she was petite and pretty, probably a perfect 10 figure; very easy on the eye and with a fairly hefty chest (but not too hefty).

Today, she was jowly, haggard-looking and her chest had expanded and relocated to somewhere around her burgeoning Pirelli factory.

Funnily enough, she didn't seem to recognise me (but then again, I am somewhat hairier and not as sylph like as I used to be myself either).

Ho-hum. This getting old lark is not all it's cracked up to be sometimes...

tis all in the mind
My plan is to stay young at heart - who am I kidding, I'll never be a proper grown-up - and avoid mirrors.

The Boots No 7 Refine & Rewind serum is better that the Perfect & Protect.

And all the antioxidants in red wine are anti-aging....

You're telling me
I'm scanning in old 35mm pics from up to 18 years ago.

Lemon-flavoured Bob on a Bike, this is depressing.

There are photos there from when I had a pair of 32" waist 501's. Which fitted. With minimal overhang.

*sobs*

*reconsiders gym membership*

Although to be fair there are some bloody awful hair days in there as well.

I remember the good ol' box brownie.....

Now, those were the days.

Have you done that thing were you lift your face up with your fingers at the temples?
I look 30 again when I do that.

I might grow my hair really long and have a chav facelift.

Referred to as a 'Birkenhead Facelift' round here.

It's depressing.
A mate of mine posted some photos of yours truly on faecebook from 12 years ago and I was shocked at how much slimmer I was.

Granted, peroxide blonde hair was a definite fashion mistake but God Damn I looked pretty good.

Now larger, hairier, less toned and looking slightly like my Dad did when I was 5. Bugger the passing of time.
