...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!

Don't worry. When you get to 33 you'll be switching on Radio 2 in the morning and looking forward to Chris Evan's playing his 2 morning 'Gobsmackers' on your drive into work.

who the frig is Dionne Warwick

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

You know when you're getting old when you don't know anyone who is twice your age.

you're welcome, glad i could help prevent a potential social faux-pas.

I'm 29 and listen to nothing but Radio 4. Why anyone would want to listen to other peoples' choices of music, I don't know.

do you pick all the songs on radio 4?

She covered a Stranglers tune.

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.

Perhaps it's a chance to listen to something I've never heard before or because I just love the banter!

Which station do you listen to?

Which station do you listen to?

 

I don't really. I'm just being a pain in the arse.

 

I occasionally listen to Radio 6, Radio 4 on iplayer for the Science programmes, Triple J online and a bit of Alex Jones on some weird American channel.

When your children are wearing the fashions, you wore last time round eg: leggings, ra-ra skirts etc

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.

 

back to the thread though ive noticed im over 30 more because I get worse hangovers and its harder to shake em off

when you come to the conclusion that kids just doing exactly the same thigs you did (knocking about in the park or town hall square) are up to no good.

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

What he said, though I'm a little over 32 now.

Rock Radio and at 56, humming along to Sylvia by Focus in the jam jar.
