    I used to have one just like that. Got it off my late in laws. Kettle never worked but I liked the clock.

      Don't be daft. It's a stock response to posts along the lines of "If after a certain age you don't hurt when you wake up, you've died in the night".

      "Nah - that's just you". I could put a smiley on the end if it helps?

        They are right though. THere are exceptions but as a generalisation it's fairly accurate - the main difference is whether you realise it's happening or think you're still young and cool while the younglings are laughing at you.

            The only way you’ll shine is if you polish your head.

              Which reminds me...

              “People used to laugh at me when I said I wanted to be a comedian. Well they're not laughing now.” Bob Monkhouse.

              Eric Sykes got hearing aids "I didn’t hear a laugh for 25 years… then I got these and I realized I hadn’t been getting any!"

                  I stop you from shining by casting shade on you and your car choice.

                      Choice being the operative word .... being young, fit and flexible, I can choose a low car. You oldies, you need something more fitting for your arthritic bodies
