Haircut time, has to be done as I don't want people thinking I'm a hippy. Thing is, two of the girls in the barbers charge full price but the other charges me oap rate. I'm 48 ffs and don't know weather to be miffed because she charges me as oap or happy because I'm saving 10 Bob. Should I be miffed? |

"If you are 48 why do you think in old money (10 bob)? You weren't using money before decimalisation. I think this is proof you are far older than 48 and why she gave you the OAP discount !"
Hahahahahahahaha very true! |

Not true. I am 48 but was raised in time bubble that is otherwise known as a small West Yorkshire town. I sometimes greet people with a "Ey-Up" and eat fish on a Friday. I dont own a flat cap or whippet just yet though. |

"Did she offer to trim your eyebrows and ear hair ? That is a sure sign of being an OAP"
She offered a new waxing service a few visits back, I'm sure it was ears and I think nose. Truth is I panicked, it was an unexpected question in what is normally a place I feel comfortable and safe, I didn't know what to do. I tried to politely decline but the words came out as an inaudible mumble, she asked again and all I could think to say was, "what if the lads in the pub notice? They don't even know I moisturise" |

If you use phrases like 'ten bob' you're a pensioner mate. |
