You can remember all the words to the Champion the Wonder Horse theme you last heard aged 12 but can't remember your own phone number.

I occasionally get reprimanded for wandering around the house (I won't say hanging out around the house...) having forgotten to do my flies up after splashing my boots - my standard response is to explain that at least I remembered to unzip in the first place... doubtless the time will come...
 
Prefer some of radio 2 to most of radio 1

Prefer any of Radio 2 to all of Radio 1, start listening to Classic FM and know where Radio 3 is.

I knew I was old when the new lodger asked if we had "wireless", I took her into the kitchen and pointed to the Robert's Radio. She, holding her lap-top, was perplexed!!

I think you need to come up with a system - and fast; just make sure it doesn't involve talking to little Sam!

(I'm still clinging on to mid '40s by the way - I just blame it on my distracted genius tendencies...)
 
Yesterday morning I got up for work, went into the kitchen and put the kettle on. I dropped a teabag into a mug and, when waiting for the kettle to boil, poured some cornflakes into a bowl and then.............I poured boiling water over my cornflakes. :oops:

You don't have to be old. My 20-something daughter was making tea and put milk in the cups; while doing this she also filled the sugar bowl with milk! #-o #-o
