You know you're getting old when..

[Rocket Spud]

..When a cup of tea is a highlight of your day.

[I Love My Cats]

When you have to sit in your chair

[thaigreen]

When you wake up the day after having 4 beers and feel dead

[T]

When you want your bed at about 9pm on a friday!

[goldenjuniper]

you can renew your car insurance for 280 quid!

[mossieman]

When you watch a re-run of top of the pops 2 and notice the adult pops stars you looked up to now look like they were kids.

That's so true. Everyone I know past the age of 40 has their own chair.

[pheys]

you buy a nose hair trimmer

[thaigreen]

When you have a selection of thermos cannisters

lol, it's true. When I watch shows from the 70's now my commentary is something like "she's dead, he died decades ago, he's in prison, his case comes up next week, etc" Bruce Forsyth seems to be the sole survivor which surprises me considering that his eyes were permanently glued to women's bums.

You become interested in jam making.

[-Simon-]

You get good value for money on your English Heritage membership.

I was going to say this. I listen occasionally but know I'm not missing anything these days.

I prefer to listen to Carpenters, Doris Day, Ella Fitzgerald etc these days and sometimes Coldplay, Alicia Keys and Rumer.

You realize that what is in your wardrobe is actually current fashion again

[mossieman]

Ann Robinson is starting to look younger than you

[mossieman]

You spend all your time thinking up new "you know your .......... when" threads

[mossieman]

You end up spending 24 hours in A and E more times than the show is on TV

You start yelling at kids to get off your lawn.

[thaigreen]

You start wondering about the marketing at Armitage Shanks and how they seem to be everywhere.

[pheys]

hair disappears from your scalp and appears in your ears and nose.
when you prefer coffee and tea to cola.
when you buy something you haven't bought for years and think "**** me; that used to be (like ten years previous) 25p!"

[db838]

You're so shocked that your favourite band is played on the radio that you think one of the members must have died or something

[mossieman]
