    When I was 32 there was a chance I would have to go to New Zealand on business. One of the secretaries asked if she could come along. I said my wife might object. She replied: "Tell her I'm 22."

    I walked away what sense that made until I realised that written out in full her sentence would have been:
    "Tell her I am 22 and therefore could not conceivably be interested in someone as old as you."

    Was out shopping this evening, I Cant Get No Satisfaction was playing on the 'tannoy'. That song is 56 years old. Feeling old?

    I was talking to one of the apprentices at work and they didn't know who Oasis was! That was a serious 'oh fk I'm getting old' moment

    I've been here...I also realized that these kids have no idea how to party. They are so much more sensible now. Everything from their image to their career life is so much more competitive they don't seem to properly let their hair down. I mean they think they are, but I count myself very lucky to grow up in a time before social media when you had to take a wind up disposable camera out with you and you could still go to a proper rave with a fiver, 20 cigs and a fake id

    Is that not just down to your anal adventures widening the outlet?

    Saying "honestly I'm ambivalent to how Newcastle are doing" and actually meaning and feeling it.

    Would that be classed as a murmuration?

    I was still relatively young when I realised I was getting old, gobby sprogs straight out of the depot, claiming that they had rights and delivering the message with bad ass attitude.
