This is a question Turning into your parents

Unable to hold back the genetic tide, I find myself gardening in my carpet slippers, asking for a knife and fork in McDonalds and agreeing with the Daily Telegraph. I'm beyond help - what about you?

Thanks to b3th for the suggestion

I just realised how bad I'm getting
I'm 28.
My missus is slightly older than me.
Because of this, I have:
3 step-children and i have been a 'grandad' for 4 years.
I have 3 'grandchildren' now, with 2 more due in the middle of May.
I want to grow a veg garden, but can't, because my pet ducks keep eating everything green. I've thought about getting a caravan, which i think is the worst bit, but ended up not getting one.
I also got rid of my 'uselessly slow' fiesta when i bought a 2 litre sports coupe, then regretted it straight away because the fiesta was more practical, so have now bought a Ford KA.

I LOVE my slippers, I don't do anything on ANY weekends, EVER.
I'm halfway through repainting my flat and go for more pastel coloured blues for the bathrooms, greeny for the kitchen and the colour for the main part of the lounge is 'Coastline', because it's nice.

I actually remember feeding the horses that used to be in the field where now stands a nice little housing estate where my (biological) 11 year old son lives. He's lived there since he was 2.

I tidied up my garage as well, so I've got a little workshop and instead of buying a gate for our driveway, I made one.

I don't have a tartan blanket on the parcel shelf of the car so I'm not that bad, yet.

I'm turning into my dad, just as he starts going out on weekends.
