This is a question Evidence that you're getting old

Youthful as I am, I realised yesterday that I no-longer know, or care, who is #1 in the charts. Furthermore, it takes all day to get rid of a hangover and I now seem to have a profound interest in gardening. Worst is that I now use words like 'furthermore'.

What makes you think that you are getting old?

This is a QotW answer You Damned Whippersnappers !
Just imagine what it's like for us 40 year olds.

Computers at school was BASIC or machine code on the Sharp MZ80K (or maybe the new Sinclair ZX-80!).

I'm coming up to 18 years in the same full-time job. And I basically enjoy it.

Usenet is my friend, although some of my first posts are too old for Google to find.

I own a diesel engined car. I sold my Landrover 101 Ambulance as it wasn't really practical.

Miscellaneoud medical problems. I can only see my feet with the aid of a mirror.

'Young totty' is no longer jail-bait. Raquel Welch still looks humpable.

I can look at the singles chart and it's all shite. I enjoy black and white movies.

My drink of choice is coffee. Pills ? 7 in the morning ; all prescribed.

And the number one indicaton that I'm getting old ?
My doctor suggested I might want to think about a will. Hmmm.
