    when you remember car adverts that showed you a cars style and performance, nowadays you just get similar looking bland boxes, displaying various bits of tech and their range.

    Just phoned Sky for the usual jousting exercise. 

    Got the usual bollox about being a valued Diamond customer and was then told by young Syad that my contract was quite a bit older than him.  Cheeky sod!  :)

    When the first of the fellas who were in your school year turns 50.  FFS.  I still feel about 13/14 in my head.

    When someone says “ I started my first proper job 10 years ago yesterday” 

    When I know at 57 I retired from my last proper paid job 10 years ago last month! 

    Now having completed over 12 years as a volunteer in school and 15 years of Therapy dog work I’m dreading what I’ll do when I really pack up work 🤷‍♂️

    Start to feel really old then…..would be my guess…………

    This is the bane of my life and means things I used to look forward to I now dread,

    People that generally don’t really suffer from hangovers don't appreciate that they are some form of chosen ones

    A good routine can combat all except the very worst hangovers. 2 pints of water a berocca and a strong anti-histamine before bed. Rehydration sachet, coffee and more water with a nice carby greasy breakfast and you'll be fine other than a bit of tiredness.

    I never felt bad after having vaccinations when I was younger!
    But I had my flu and Covid shot yesterday and I crawled into bed, fell asleep at 7.30pm and woke up this morning at 7.30am with two sore arms and still feel tired.
