Finally have to accept that I am now entering a different stage of my life.

At a music festival yesterday and today and just on the edge of the mosh pit and realise I have lost my bounce.

My arthritic knee kept giving way.

How the hell will I manage not bouncing up and down to PIL and John Lydon today

Signs of getting old, Madonna being 60, that's just scary.
I wish that she'd act her age

I'm with you - taking my daughter to Leeds on Friday and instead of being *in* the mosh pit, I will spend all day ushering her away from them, whilst trying to avoid tutting and shaking my head. Proustian.

Some signs we are getting old that I found, some I relate to..

Kidnappers are not very interested in you.

In a hostage situation you are likely to be released first.

No one expects you to run into a burning building.

People call at 9 PM and ask, "Did I wake you?"

People no longer view you as a hypochondriac.

There is nothing left to learn the hard way.

Things you buy now won't wear out.

You can eat dinner at 4 P.M.

You can live without sex but not without glasses.

You enjoy hearing about other peoples operations.

You get into heated arguments about pension plans.

You no longer think of speed limits as a challenge.

You quit trying to hold your stomach in, no matter who walks into the room.

You sing along with elevator music.

Your eyes won't get much worse.

Your joints are more accurate meteorologists than the national weather service.

Your secrets are safe with your friends because they can't remember them either.

Your supply of brain cells is finally down to manageable size.

Your eyesight gets better.

You know you're getting old when you get socks and handkerchiefs for Christmas along with one of those gadgets for trimming nasal hair.

Worst of all, that's what you asked for!

When you are President but use Twitter

When you drop your mobile phone and hear a crack, and you hope its your hip

You no longer care about farting or belching in public!

Where's McLaren_Field when you need a tale or two?

My first sign of getting old was when players became too old to perv over because they were old enough to be my sons. That was a very very sad day.

Do you not aspire to milf status ?

I have noticed lately that scrolling down to enter my age on a website has become quite a lengthy exercise...

Had a call with my team at work today, with people dialling in from different offices. The phone in one office kept cutting in and out and I referenced Norman Collier. The boss pointed out that of about a dozen people on the line, only she and I are old enough to know what i was on about.
