    I'd have ripped her hand off... and blamed PMT. That'd have confused her. The pup.

    Old injury pains flaring up on occasion. For example, I broke my left hand 20 years ago and this morning it's hurting me in the same area where I broke it originally. Also noticeably bigger manboobs and flabbier ass since I got past 40.

    Also, just not having the energy I did 10 years ago. I used to love travelling to Limerick at the weekends to see the parents and the friends I have there. Nowadays I find the travelling exhausting, especially after a long week in work.

    Also having the odd flashback, thinking back of some of the utterly idiotic things I done when I was younger. To be honest I'd rather be the sensible old fart I am now than the irresponsible young gobshite I was years ago :D

    No money owed. My husband is an ex pirate DJ and a radio anorak. He was an avid listener so I recognized the name.

    Even worse when you are referred to Occupational Therapy and they you give a jar opening tool and a bottle opening tool too 😥

    I was in a Supervalu today and detected part of a solo from one of my favourite songs. That made me smile. I remarked to the till-person how I was quite impressed with some of the music they play, she said she hated it having to listen to it all day. Fair enough. As I was leaving the shop it clicked with me: what I like is now OldSh!t They Dont Have to Pay Much For.

    That made me smile too.

    When my nephews, in their mid to late teens have never heard of Bruce Willis or Sonia O'Sullivan!🤨

    When you find yourself getting strange looks in traffic as you rock out to Slipknot at full volume................in your wife's seven seater.

    Didn't we used to say 'I'll poleaxe ya' years ago? If I'm remembering correctly I haven't heard anyone saying it in a very long time.

    When you sit on the toilet and your balls touch the water :) (sorry, I stole that one from Greg Giraldo. It's definitely a sign of advancing age in North America, where the toilet water levels are quite high, but even more so here!)
