When every time you get up from your favourite armchair you think to yourself 'while I'm up I may as well try for a piss cos it might save me having to get up again later on'
Or when you realise it's probably better to sit down to pee from now on. And take the newspaper with you. And a pen. For the crossword. john2443 said:
When you start buying cars based on the mpg and road tax instead of bhp and 0-60
Wow! Well past three score and ten and yet to do that. Hopefully will never have too before they screw the lid down ... tight. Hand me my keys to my turbocharged petrol guzzler .... und zimmer frame.
More seriously, I was long ago convinced age really is more a state of mind mentality thing. I clearly remember some of the boys in my school were already middle aged in their teens.

On finishing my haircut the other week, my barber asked if I wanted my eyebrows trimming.
Mine's asked that the last couple of times, quickly declined as they don't need doing and I'm not that old yet.I realised it a few years back when it snowed heavily. Got up in the morning and my first thought was 'Sh*t, I've got to go to work in this!'
More recently it's talking to people on a night out in town and realising I'm almost old enough to be their father.
Although getting ID'd going into a bar last week at least helps me to pretend I'm still young.
