Is it right for a man to cross his legs? I can truly say I have never crossed mine.

It's necessary when on a train and reading a broadsheet, which you would know if you were a gentleman and not an oik

You mean you don't practice the art of folding your broadsheet? My Uncle taught me how to do that years ago and I took no notice. Now I look a massive twat as I try to look all highbrow floundering in paper like a lunatic on Christmas morning..

"Uncooked fish and chips' was how it was referred to in my day.

Your hand floundering about in the newspaper like a just-landed fish.

Floundering.

I made a funny mummy.





You can never look stupid if you are reading even if you think you are being clumsy. Most people will be like "ooh look at Harry High Pants and his Financial Times" .

You said floundering.

I'm shit.

I stick to the Times. Although I'm sure many Times readers were horrified when it switched to red top format.

...you ask cabbies to turn the radio off instead of on.

people forget Thatcherism.

I couldn't work out where i was supposed to buy my tickets at the pictures (or Multiplex as they are now known) last night. I walked up and down looking like a bit of a spaz.

There is no glass kiosk anymore. When did this happen?

A (thick) girl in our office saying, Scottish are English!! Might let Mac have a wee word with her!

...that thing of time moving faster when you get older actually starts to happen.

January and 1/2 of Feb. Pfft. Gone.

You sleep slightly out of your normal position and end up with back and neck ache and walking like the hunchback of Notre Dame.

Skiving off?

I bet he hasn't got much of a sense of humour about it mate it's not very funny.

...you ring Vodaphone after being told that as a customer of theirs pretty much since they started in the UK I might have accrued enough 'points' to get some benefits. So I rang them (1st time ever) and a nice african man called Francis said I had in fact the most unused points of anyone he'd seen.

What made me feel old was when we worked out together which model my old phone was he laughed. Not in a jolly african way but in a distinct "I can't believe anyone has a phone as shit as that" type way.

It got to me. It did.
