40 in a couple of months

My hair is going very thin on top

Went to the pub on Saturday night & my missus was saying she felt too old to be in there (she's 9 years younger than me)

I've started to think about my Will

I often see young birds on the telly now & just think they look like twats, not even a twitch

I tutted at a boy snorting bingo in the toilet in the boozer at the weekend

I like getting the living room to myself so I can stick some jazz on & think about the universe

Pissing is starting to become a real hassle

 

40? You’re just a boy!

 

 

 

Or maybe that says as much as how ancient I am.

Kids in school looked at me like I was a caveman today because I didn't know what the dances from fortnight were called.

I've noticed today that I now have hairs growing out of my earholes.

Yeah, your physical decline has now stepped up a notch.

Everything seems to be a chore now, everything seems more difficult. Just cannot be arsed.

Life's a grind mate. Just have to keep going and enjoy the more pleasurable things which are less often as you get older.

I know mate. I just silicone the bath and normally removing and replacing it would take me half an hour, took ages. Anything I do in my own home is a chore haha.

If you have the money, one of the pleasures of getting older is getting a man in (oo errr) to do those jobs you put off forever

I’m a builder haha. In future I will get one of the lads or my nephew, with it being right on Xmas I thought I would do it. To be fair I hadn’t done it for donkeys years.

I’m part time/semi casual/ anxious and depressed/ cba. The money angle is fine, the willingness is not.

Just fill it in with dried Weetabix, that stuff is impenetrable.

Had a new bathroom fitted 3 years ago and it needed doing, problem is it’s different widths. Next time I will plug it first with Weetabix and silicone over.

I got a new nose hair trimmer for Christmas and I couldn't be happier.

And you can use it on your ears too. Bonus.

Driving through town late at night and seeing scantily clad young women who've been on the piss, and your first though is 'fuck me they must be cold.'

Reminiscing with mates about big nights out in the past and it making me shudder. The thought of staying out until 7am and doing some class A's absolutely horrifies me now.

I have mates who still do it despite being married with kids. Madness. 

 

Nowadays when it gets to 11.30pm I start twitching in case I'm going to miss out on my sleep.
