Finding yourself holding your hands in front of you,like an old woman waiting for her Grandchildren to arrive.
Muttering "Get that ****in hood down" to yourself every time you see anyone wearing anything with a hood. |

My niece and her friend stayed with me recently and I actually said to them 'you aren't going out dressed like that surely?'

A sure sign your getting old, every day you put the news on and expect to see another celeb who's died, Sean Hughes and Big Kev Cadle today, both provided me with great entertainment over the years. May they both rest in peace.

When I was younger I used to find old people who had no spacial awareness and who get in the way in a shop or out on a street annoying. Now I'm one of them and find people under 30 mostly irritating

"When I was younger I used to find old people who had no spacial awareness and who get in the way in a shop or out on a street annoying."
In my experience it's "young" people that tend to do that and it drives me mad. The sort of people that get off a train or get to the top of an escalator and then immediately stop, often as a group, to adjust their luggage or decide which way to go as 50 people have to try and squeeze past them or just wait as they can't move. We should be allow cattle prods for such events. |

I felt a bit old the other night when I sat down to watch the hobbit film, something I'd once have looked forward to, and realised it felt a bit childish and I'd probably be rather watching a program about say ... Large Dam Construction or the history of WW2 Allotments on one of the Mens channels.
