Oh dear ...
> 1. You leave clubs before the end to "beat the rush". (worst still you
don't go to the clubs)
> 2. You get more excited about having a roast on a Sunday than going
clubbing
the night before.
> 3. You stop dreaming of becoming a professional footballer /
basketball
player and start dreaming of having a son who might instead.
> 4. Before throwing the local paper away, you look through the property
section.
> 5. All of a sudden, middle aged people are not 46, they are only 46.
> 6. Before going out anywhere, you ask whether there is anywhere to
park.
> 7. Rather than throw a knackered pair of trainers out, you keep them
because
they'll be alright for the DIY or in the garden.
> 8. You buy T-shirts without anything written on them.
> 9. Instead of laughing at the innovations catalogue that falls out of
the
newspaper,you suddenly see both the benefit and money saving properties
of
most of the things that are in it.
> 10. You start to worry about your parents' health.
> 11. You have more disposable income, but everything you want or need
to buy
costs between 200 and 500 quid.
> 12. You don't get funny looks when you buy a Disneyvideo or a Wallace
And
> Gromit bubble bath,as the sales assistant assumes they are for your
children.
> 13. Pop music all starts to sound the same.
> 14. You opt for Pizza Express over Pizza Hut because they do a really
nice
half-bottle of house red.
> 15. You always have enough milk in.
> 16. To compensate for the fact that you have little desire to go
clubbing,
> you instead frequent trendy bars and restaurants in themistaken belief
that
you have not turned into your parents.
> 17. While flicking through the TV channels, you happen upon C4's Time
Team
with TonyRobinson. You get drawn in. Grand Designs also appeals.
> 18. The benefits of a pension scheme become clear.
> 19. You go out of your way to pick up a colour chart from B&Q.
> 20. You wish you had a shed.
> 21. You have a shed.
> 22. You actually find yourself saying "They don't make 'em like that
anymore" and "I remember when there were only 4 TV channels" and "Not in
my
day...."
> 23. Radio 2 play more songs you know than Radio 1 - and JeremyVinehas
some
really interesting guests on.
> 24. Instead of tutting at old people who take ages to get off the bus,
You
tut at rowdy school children.
> 25. When sitting outside a pub you admire their hanging baskets.
> 26. You find yourself saying "is it cold in here or is it just me
> 27. You understand the above and forward it to your fellow aging
friends.
