What's going on these days

As a 22 year old I'm starting to notice things that annoy me that didn't in 'my day'..

£1 for a game of pool? Used to be 20p round my way.
Kids supporting Chelsea and Arsenal? Whats up with United? (or Wednesday if push comes to shove ;))
Very few places in the city to get a decent pint - i.e. fizzy and with a decent head

Etc.

Rant Over

They're not skirts they're belts.

OK, on that, maybe some things are better! I am partial to a tablecloth skirt though lol ;)

Yes, it's not like the mid-nineties, when you could leave your door unlocked. Mind you, we didn't have much to steal, just an Amiga or Megadrive, or a playstation one if you were lucky (we were the first ones on our street to own one - we invited in all the neighbours, and we sat round, while the old man plugged it in and off we went - ee, it were like magic it were). Mobile phones were still the provenance of the showoff, and Norton Lees didn't yet have a cash machine. But despite that we were happy.

You're growing old mate! :thumbsup:
It only gets worse & it's all downhill - enjoy the ride.

Have you seen the TV program Grumpy Old Men?

It's like excerpts from my diary :suspect: :hihi:
