Good luck everybody. Have a good one.
When new technology can only be described as ‘magic’.
.......... you lose 10 yards off the tee and think “when did that happen?”
.....you look at the forum clock and realise its past your bedtime.
Also what ever time you do actually go to bed regardless of what you've been doing / drinking you wake up at 06:30 .
When you realise that you are older than the mum of the lad you just employed.
When you started with radio1 and now you're up to radio 4...
When your wardrobe consists of "comfortable clothes" rather than anything remotely fashionable.
When you constantly quote " the good old days" or " it wouldn't have happened in my day".
When you give your kids a talking too and get a sense of deja vu.
... when appreciating Abba no longer becomes a guilty secret. They have marvellous melodies and lyricism you know...
Won't be long, before there is no more "loud" without a battery.
... you thin that you still have your hair, until you open the sunroof of your car... and you look in the rearview mirror, realising that you can see the shape of your skull shimmering under your hair...
... you need to wear something on your head to protect the skin under your hair from sunburn...
(Sadly, talking from experience!)

You keep random broken old crap, because......that might come in handy. 😃
When you pick up”Stuff” magazine and realise you aren’t interested in any of the contents.
When you send texts you send them in full English, no abbreviations, and go back to check the grammar is correct before sending.
(Brilliant thread by the way!)
So clever my foot fell off.
When you have a night in to yourself and instead of watching smut you choose “Grand Designs” or Wayne Carini on those clever iplayer thingies.
So clever my foot fell off.
The amount of times you get up to pee in the night is about a third of the hours you sleep...

I came into this thread to post something.
Can’t remember what it was. Give me a mo...
You know you’re middle aged, when you realise what other people think you, is none of your business.
Thinks I've noticed at 39...
Lots of Policemen look like spotty faced 20 year olds.
Sometimes I pee in Morse code.
I have lost all consideration for anything deemed fashionable.
Bad grammar angers me.
Driving at 60mph on the motorway no longer bothers me.
Chart music is ridiculous.
I'm a Woodturner... Nuff said.
you interview someone for a job and are shocked and a bit disturbed to discover their year of birth starts with a 2 (not that you can ask of course!)
. . . when your penis tattoo has been reading LUDO for as long as you can remember, and it's several hours before you recall that it used to do LLANDUDNO as well . . .
F.T.F.A.
Have to undo the waist band of your trousers when you take a leak!

You say. Don't wear your coat indoors, you'll not feel the benefit when you get outside. 😃
Phase 1
When you feel that washed out greys and autumnal colours are more your style.
Phase 2
You browse the ads for those straight cut high-waisted trousers from the 1950s and instead of laughing, think they look smart.
Phase 3
Light-coloured trousers become off-limits in case of accidents.
When the kids are out all night for a sleepover and you and the missus see it as a golden opportunity to catch up on some sleep.
when you go to the pub for lunch instead of lash.
I remember what I was going to post now.
When you realise you actually couldn’t care less about your boss, your irritating mate, that impossible deadline, your mad parents, whether kids think you look stupid in your favourite shirt or the 15th letter from nPower telling you must fit a smart meter.
When you seriously concider buying Reverso
.. you search for milfs instead of coeds.
..when all Police Officers parents are starting to look young these days, and you give up on apostrophes.
You take your slippers round to other peoples homes.

When you get halfway up the stairs and you forget what you are going upstairs for!!!!!
When you bought a bungalow in your early 40s and you’re now in your late 40s you appreciate why.
When you know the layout of your ensuite by muscle memory so you can pee in the dark sitting down owing to having to do it 2-3x a night without scorching your retinas with the light
My mate has been doing that since he was about 32!

We love our bungalow!!!!
True, and with middle age we start looking forward to itWon't be long, before there is no more "loud" without a battery.
Oh, and eating a takeaway kebab from a plate
And heaven forbid, with a knife and fork
Me too Mike! I didn't know we were bungalow brethren
Viva la bungalow!

When you remember how it was in WWI

Seriously mate? That was 100 years ago. My great aunt might remember that time (she is 107 now i think) but she certainly isn't middle aged!
Good luck everybody. Have a good one.
When drinking tea after 6pm ensures at least 3 pees in the night.
Tea after 8 and you can forget about sleeping.
When seat comfort is the main feature you look for in a car, i.e. you buy a Volvo.
When you insist on writing with a fountain pen, and still haven't bought a smartphone.
Sorry, that's beyond middle aged
Haha
Just drove to Lidl and walked home, forgetting the car.
You win.
Cheers..

You wish you didn't have a lawn in the first place
