Youri McAnespie Posted May 7, 2021 Share Posted May 7, 2021 Getting up for a piss about three times a night - which is a false scenario because I take a 2L Fizzy Mineral Water to bed every night and sup it in my sleep... If I take flat stuff I hardly touch it - no need to get up for a piss... Listening to certain techno mixes I enjoyed as a youth - Dave Clarke, Jeff Mills, Dave Angel etc. - they seem comically fast now. I wouldn't admit I (still) like them, they ain't aged well... My trainer preference. I think the yoot have, in the main, utter shite taste, so I refuse to budge on this matter - hopefully the wheel will turn back once more...

Members bolton_blondie Posted May 7, 2021 Members Share Posted May 7, 2021 Every bone in your body cracking. Prefering day drink than going out at night time. Girls at work not remembering dial up Internet. Not being asked for I.D when buying booze. Being one of the oldest ones waiting for a scan on the maternity ward.

Site Supporter Spider Posted May 7, 2021 Site Supporter Share Posted May 7, 2021 The day after any sort of physical exertion. For example, I did a coupe of hours bowling in the cricket nets last week and the day after felt like I'd been shot from a cannon into a wall.

Youri McAnespie Posted May 7, 2021 Author Share Posted May 7, 2021 (edited) That little adjustment shuffle one now performs before intercepting and kicking a football... This is a new one on me. It's like a timekiller the body performs whilst awaiting the instruction from brain to foot. Makes me feel decrepit.

Site Supporter desperado Posted May 7, 2021 Site Supporter Share Posted May 7, 2021 The age of your own kids. And more alarming, the older they get the stuff you were doing, should have been doing and shouldn’t have been doing and thinking/knowing they are probably doing the same 😲 Even tough you tell them not to Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Youri McAnespie Posted May 7, 2021 Author Share Posted May 7, 2021 Seeing a feature about some 'old-timer' on Football Focus who's still playing (Doncaster - forget his name) and he's a good few years younger than oneself. Young-ish managers an' all, Ian Evatt stop showing off, you're still under forty, woop-di-do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Youri McAnespie Posted May 7, 2021 Author Share Posted May 7, 2021 (edited) I'd say not having the foggiest what 'the top ten at ten' is makes me feel owder... But I suspect it should actually make me feel younger. I bet the yoot think it's sommat for old farts.

frank_spencer Posted May 7, 2021 Share Posted May 7, 2021 My knees, they crunch and grind like they're on a ratchet. Having friends who's kids have reached the age where they could join us for a pint. Realising songs you thought were recent are actually nearly 20yrs old.

Members Rudy Posted May 7, 2021 Members Share Posted May 7, 2021 (edited) Right you bunch of codgers @frank_spencer @Spider @bolton_blondie and whoever else the reason you ache and creak isn’t totally because of your age it’s your tendons shortening because of a few things Not exercising the right areas, not warming up and cooling down. Stretch for 10 mins before bed and you’ll become more flexible Plenty of water because your muscles are dehydrated cod liver oil tablets take them every day to lubricate your joints A-z vitamins one a day and you’ll feel better Edited May 7, 2021 by Rudy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
