    OMG, I do that all the time! I must be ancient then cos I've been doing that for years.

    What makes me feel old is that I was on the tram the other day and all these school kids got on, and I was just thinking how immature they were. I was rolling my eyes and eveything.

    Also, I remember when there were only 4 channels on British terrestrial TV.

    That makes me feel old.

    You know you're getting old when you meet someone who says "Dallas? That was before my time" I couldn't believe it :lol:
    When you listen to the radio and they announce your favorite song from your youth as "golden oldie" Man, that were the 80s! :lol:

    Yeah well we knew as soon as we went into the new millenium that anything 19 hundred whatever was going to seem old.

    You know you're getting old when you remember sitcoms being funny.
