Don't mention Noggin the Nog.
Just don't.

Or The Clangers and the best of all -


Made almost meaningful in a totally meaningless way by Eric Thompson's drollery - time for bed said Zebedee.

So, I made it to 58 today and my understanding is I've dragged out 'middle aged' by a couple of years and I have both feet firmly in 'duffer' territory now.
What happens now? Have I got to start moving on from tutting at kids and start writing angry letters to the local free paper? What is my motivation as an arl fart?

Just be happy that some on here still see you as a youngster.
By the way, Happy Birthday.

No. It'll be a few years yet before you get to that stage. Your motivation is to carry on believing you're still 21 and in your prime.

Takes me back, very evocative piece of music.

I cannot remember the programme, but I do remember the music…..

The funniest bit is when some kids kick a ball towards you (which in the past you would have lifted with your toes and keepy uppy juggled it a bit before volleying it back to them) then the ball hits your foot, rolls away, and you feel like an idiot….

Then there's the clothing appropriate for a man approaching 60.
Start keeping an eye out for an eye catching multi pocketed gilet. The absolute de rigueur of fashion for the man about town.

Just carry on with your favourite hobby like I do. Keep supporting Everton and hope for the best.

Happy Birthday young un
I was 67 yesterday and I'm currently a bit hung over.
I don't normally celebrate birthdays now but yesterday also marked 10 years since I retired which I figured did call for celebration?
Incidentally, it was also 49 years yesterday since the first time I ever got banned from my local ?
