You know you are getting old when...

[Lighthouse]

You know you are getting old when the son of the player you saw make his debut retires.

[Rupert]

How about when you get off the train, hoist your rucksack onto your back, bend down to pick up the tent and a member of the platform staff asks you if you need any help.

She meant well, but it was a crushing moment, I can tell you.

Still, as I always say, there is only one thing worse than getting old, and that is not getting old.

When you've just spent £38 on the internet on something called sport skins (the shorts)  in the hope you might still be able to play football. Never heard of them till a couple of hours ago, but  told one of my mates i've decided to play tonight and he told me about these skin things. If they're any good i'm going to get the tee shirt version.

Fred, these are also called 'compression' pants, shorts, socks. They are used for recovery after a hard workout. I use them for cycling but never considered using them for while I was riding. They don't hide much so....be careful.  :dft012:

You know you are old when you go the hair dressers and they don't ask how you want it!

You know you're old when you don't have to go there any more....!

I do more than this on two continents. After three three-generation Major League baseball families in my lifetime, I now have three generations of Hateley's I've seen play football in the UK.

[Me-ate-Live, innit??]

30 years ago, how damn shocking !!!!!

Hey, at least you're out there having a go. After the game is the time to wear the skin suits. It is supposed to accelerate recovery and healing. I found they to help.

some say only for an hour afterwards, however I tend to wear them much longer and after a really hard ride, where my legs feel like rubber afterwards I may wear them to sleep. The whole idea is to keep the muscles close, rather than hanging as they do away from the body, this allows more blood to flow through the muscle tissue which promotes healing.

I knew I was past it when an old lady in the village had to drive me home when I was overcome by the heat in the main street. She is older than me – and Silver Fox I am into great grandmothers these days, don't worry about grandmothers. :dft007:

When the fart turns out to catch you by complete surprise and contains a little more excess residue than what it used to...  :046:

Way too much information Finn... (I'm not owning up to that one yet ! )

[blingo]

When you cant be bothered to argue back.

When you need help to change your incontinence pants

When your eyes can do more than your old chap can

When you simply can not read without your glasses

When you have to take half a viagra tablet every night to stop you falling out of bed.

It's lucky we didn't win the Europa league after my follow through on the Reeperbahn, with my football superstions i'd have had to replicate that at every match i go to until we lost.

Old Penis Poem
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

My nookie days are over
My pilot light is out
What used to be my sex appeal
Is now my water spout.

Time was when, on its own accord
From my trousers it would spring
But now I've got a full-time job
To find the blasted thing.

It used to be embarrassing
The way it would behave
For every single morning
It would stand and watch me shave.

Now as old age approaches
It sure gives me the blues
To see it hang its little head
And watch me tie my shoes.
