A picture of troops deployed to hospitals in London made me realise I'm getting old. They looked like they should still be in school (some of you may be old enough to remember Paul Hardcastle's one and only hit). I also had a similar thought when I visited a Dr recently.
Anything or person, you've come across recently that made you think, wow, I'm no longer the future?
(on a positive note, I'm happy in my life and don't have the worries, I'm sure people the age of these soldiers have)  |

I constantly feel old. 21 year olds have a more exciting life than me and I'm sat here doing a 9-5 job, whilst juggling kids, dogs and a house. What makes it worse is I'm only 4 years old than them  |

I'm old enough to remember nnnnnnnineteen.
It does bring you up short when people in positions of responsibility are young enough to be your children or even grandchildren at a pinch. One example really stands out for me. We put our house up for sale and the agent handling the sale was at school with our son  . He asked very respectfully if we were his parents. When he'd gone we looked at each other and said "that's it, we're officially old" |
