...you get into the car, turn off radio one, turn on smooth fm and start singing along to Dionne Warwick, Heartbreaker and know all the words for some crazy reason.

 

And then have a discussion with yourself about whether its pronounced war-wick or worrick.

 

I'm not even 32 yet ffs!

I was thinking similair thoughts this morning oddly enough.

 

I hate Moyles so radio 1 is out

XFM has gone to the dogs

Talkshite keeps me entertained but they wind me up

 

Radio 2 or 4 it is for this 32yr old

do you pick all the songs on radio 4?

 

Apart from Dessert Island Discs, there are no songs on Radio 4. And the point of Dessert Island Discs is to hear the story behind each track the person picks, which is a lot different to listening to some gobby fuckwit playing the latest chart shit.

I used to listen to radio 7 alot for the comedy like Steptoe and Hancocks Half Hour and alike, they also had some belting dramas to.

Smooth FM is my Radio station of choice now

 

you know when your getting old when

 

You save small pieces of wood and keep them in a small pile in the garage, knowing that one day they will be used to stir paint with

 

It takes 3 days to get over a hangover

 

You look forward to a takeaway and X Factor on a saturday night

 

You Hoover your garage

 

You go to sports direct to get a cheap pair of hiking boots to walk the dog in.

 

You give up going to the barbers and buy a set of clippers

 

Rather than bang the mrs you get up extra early so you can knock one out in the shower!

 

29 going on 79
