How you know you're getting long in the tooth...........

[FROSTYFRECKLE]

When you realise you graduated 20 years ago and see photos of old friends and think they've got old - then it hits If you talk with children about school and they yabber on about using computers in class - I wasn't allowed to use a calculator cause it was considered cheating, you used long division to do your sums!

On hols one year we passed a sign to Hutton Roof (nice little village) which some naughty person had changed to Button Moon. Son - then about 8, now 36 (!) laughed himself silly!

You know you're long in the tooth when you remember going to at least 5 different shops to do the weekly shopping. (Butcher, baker, grocer, greengrocer, chemist, newsagent, and the post office for stamps). And you could park in the street outside the shops.

Ooh, and when you wanted petrol, you sat in your car at the pump and a nice man came out and filled the tank, took your ten shilling note, and brought you change!

I feel a bit sad when I see a new 'famous' person, don't know who on earth they are or why they're famous ... and then realise their parents are younger than me

When you have to google Button Moon to jog your memory and then realise your son was to old to be watching childrens programmes in the 80s.

I must be long in the tooth because Himself says I'm turning into a Grumpy Old Woman. I reminded him that I started as a Grumpy Young Woman so I have a head start on everyone else!

[Nicos]

You- Grumpy??????

[Flummery]

Oh yes!!!
I do a nice line in despising television and radio people (professional communicators) who use bad grammar. I could have taught Lynn Truss all she knows!

When your knees do a fair impersonation of exploding bubble wrap as you climb the stairs.....Crunch, crunch, crunch......
