Gas and Electric meter reading man referred to me as a, ‘Pensioner’ today, FFS, bloody cheek!
So I decked him 🥊 🙀 what would you have done?
Just so we can get a sense of perspective, how old are you?
I SAID, HOW OLD ARE YOU?
Sorry can you repeat that I'm a trifle deaf.
65 and I can't officially retire until May next year, not that I'm planning too.
So if you are 65 you are officially a pensioner then
Not necessarily Paulie. Pension age gradually increasing, it'll be 67 soon and who knows what'll happen after that?

I went to an Albert Lee gig last week. The place was packed with pensioners in tee shirts, jiggling up and down in their seats. The only reason I wasn't one of them was I had to stand up on account of my arthritic knee!

I knew I was getting old, when I went to see Steely Dan a few years ago and I was surrounded by a sea of bald heads.
My hairdresser was bemoaning being on her own and in need of a lunch break, she even sent a customer packing. She told me I was ok though as she could cut my hair in two minutes flat. I told her she was unkind
I went to see Dartford play a year or two ago. I went with my brother in law who was a year younger than me at 64. I had to ask for the OAP discount; he got the discount with being asked.
Hubby (who is 59 in November) went to pay for us both to get into the local show. ’Two OAP’s please’ says he. ’Not a bother’ says the man behind the jump. I’m not 50 until December! Fecking cheek! Still, got in half price. Loving this grey hair mullarkey ;-)
I had some friends over from New York and one of them went to the National on the south bank to get some theatre tickets. ‘Excuse me sir, says the lad behind the counter, may i ask you if you are over 65’. Yes came the reply , because in his early 80s he probably was. ‘Then I can offer you the tickets even cheaper as a pensioner but some people feel insulted if we just offer them.’ Not a problem says my friend who was not familiar with the concept of older people being given concession prices, you can insult me anytime. Mind you, in his case he could have probably bought the theatre...ok, perhaps not that one...

Another 4 years before I'm officially a pensioner, but one of the first things I did when I hit 60 was get a Senior Railcard.
There are some benefits!!
