    I was telling the 20 year old in the office about my busy weekend (a gig and a film) - "Oh,", she says "you're still quite active then".

    Not owning an ipod, iphone or ipad, because modern technology gives me a headache.

    When it dawns on you that taking the roast dinner out of the oven whilst wearing your reading glasses is not a good idea.

    When you go to the pub with the "Ladz" and everyone talks about their latest ache or ailment rather than some "fit bird" that they saw on the train.

    When on a train the other day a beautiful young kady - in her twenties - smiled at me and..........offered me her seat. I was devastated!

    When you go to the pub and bump into a friend's daughter and explain that your are on a night out with "Ladz". You note that her jaw has dropped, her face is motionless and her eyes unblinking as she surveys the group of "Ladz" - oh dear.

    When you walk into a pub for a boys 'Friday night out', realise you spent the whole journey there listening to LBC, and the first conversation being about nose hair waxing.

    Dunno about that. I managed to get an afternoon snooze in on Sundays from my early 20's. Usually due to making the mistake of laying on the sofa whilst watching Sky Sports.

    Sadly there is a few-:
    1) Falling asleep as soon as I sit down after dinner every weekday (about 8 pm)
    2) Asking if we can turn the TV up as I cant hear the bloody thing
    3) Having to record Match of the Day on Skybox as 10:30 is toooo late
    4) What's an I-Pad?
    5) Enjoying Strictly Come Dancing!!
    6) Beer belly wont budge no matter what I do!!
    7) Being bought anti-ageing cream by Mrs RM!!
    8) Increasing flatulence
    9) Watching a film I've seen before and not knowing it until the end!!
    10) and finally.................oh shit I've forgotten what it was!!

    RedM, that's completely altered my mental image of you! The Match Thread will never be the same again, especially as I can identify with all on your list (and a few from earlier posts). {:- )
