Your Knees buckle........but your belt doesn't!

Your back goes out more than you do!

Your social calendar consists entirely of medical/dental/chiropody/physiotherapy appointments....and if it wasn't for these you'd have no social life at all.

You go to bed for an early night because you need the sleep.

You need a shopping trolley for your prescribed medicines.

You need your glasses to FIND your glasses!

I KNOW I'm getting old......I used to dash up the stairs two at a time.....now if I have to go upstairs I look to see if there is anything that needs to go up there.......and while I'm up there I look to see if there is anything that needs doing while i'm up there

No Royboy, you only scored 4 out of six and if the next lot were ones you couldn't attribute to yourself then your average would fall....letting you off the hook.

You know you are getting old when you attend more funerals than weddings.

You know you're getting old when a neighbour turns 18 and you remember them being born.

This has just happened to me.
