Re: things that make me feel old

Oh heck, it's 50 years this month since I started my O Levels and 50 years in July since I left school. I have a daughter aged 45 who has a son aged 23 and my big brother is nearly 76. Yep, I feel pretty old.

When you are young you live in the future......you always have plans...things you are going to achieve and do......you can tell when you are old because you spend a lot of time reliving your past......but at least we have a past to relive

Re: things that make me feel old

well last night Paris n i went to a concert at "Burnley Mechanics" had a ball great night, but down at the front of the stage was approx 100 people who danced all bloody night, funny thing was most were too young to have ever seen the group, we loved it, but were sat about half way up in centre, muttering to each other, were the hell do they get the energy to do that, we couldn't manage it without collapsing in a snotty heap, NOW THAT sight made us feel old. also envious.

Gayle I've just been looking at some pictures of a reunion they had last year, I didn't go. When I was going through them I kept thinking who's that old git, then realising it was someone I used to sit next to and wondering do I look like that?

That's why I never go to reunions.
