Butch Posted April 29, 2021 Share Posted April 29, 2021 When you still refer to recording stuff on Sky as "taping it" and refer to the remote as the "turner overer" FWIW I still wear Brut 33 (it's got a new scent, but preferred the old one) and call a tissue a "Paper handkerchief". It's great to be 107. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you wear tartan slippers, have a biscuit barrel in the cupboard, have all the Shadows albums in vinyl, carry a linen handkerchief, wear cardigans, eat cheese and pickle sandwiches, lust over DVD Box Set of "the Good Life", wear pajamas to bed, use Old Spice aftershave, wear Y Front underpants, use Vic vapour rub, have a bottle of Emva cream sherry on the sideboard, watch Coronation Street, are a member of National Trust, Saga and rent an Alotment and keep a tine of boiled sweets in the car glove compartment? Some further tell tale signs 😊😊😊 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
