They think it's all over.....
You know you're old when... Page 2
You saw The Beatles live four times.the first time as a support act.
You saw The Rolling Stones as a support act.
The Moody Blues were residents at your local R&B (in the true sense) club.
You can remember when Jasper Carrott actually played his guitar on stage.
You were really scared as the minutes counted down in the Cuban Missile Crisis.
...you eat dinner at 5pm.
...you just shout out for something when you need it.
...you have an owl, dog, cat and some form of miniature house ornament in your house.

Race music? You are old!
When you can afford the insurance on the sports car
When you've really got t-shirts older than your students.
When you got a full a full grant to go to university
When people offer you a seat on the tube
You make involuntary noises when bending down or getting up.
Radio 4 is on button 1 on the car radio.
An early night means just that.
When you get a birthday card that says Happy birthday - if you're still alive?
...no one hangs around the British Comedy Guide Forum. They prefer multi-access 4D video conference calling. After a busy day's teleporting.
You notice that 90% of what your family are watching is American in origin.
...when as you leave a supermarket, you stop in the doorway for some bloody reason, blocking it for everyone else. Get out the way granddad!
...you remember when Santa was just The Venerable Claus...

When referring to my age I say, "When I was born England were World Champions and The Beatles were still together."
That's a four year time frame which is close enough for most people. For youngsters they have to go and look it up which serves them right for being so young really.
You can't cut your own toe nails
You can't wipe your own bum
You put your name down for a hospice
You watch repeats of Morecombe and Wise
You buy a beige mac in the sale
You nick tomatoes from Harvester
You take a season ticket out for the benefits office
You demand respect from from your youngers even though you have never been anything other than a nasty, selfish c... all your life
You wear party hats for longer than 2 minutes
