Did anyone else get or even use their NRA (National Record Achievement) from school? Still to this day I have no idea what the usage of what it was apart from now collecting dust up in the loft

I've still got mine (in a box, in the loft). It's still got all my extra curricular activity certificates in and that god awful bio you had to write on the first page. I sound like a right pillock in it.

My knees. Avoiding crouching down to buy anything in shops from the bottom shelf because you know you’ll never get back up again without grabbing something for leverage.

I've still got mine and have to use it when I need to show my certificates as they are sort of adhered to the plastic windows inside.

I watch a lot of thrifting vlogs from America (I’m in UK) as it’s easy listening/watching whilst crafting... most thrifter girls tend to be about 20 (i’m early 30s) and hearing them pick up a handkerchief hem halterneck top, or tassled combat trousers or early 2000s tiny clutch bags and referring to them as “vintage y2k”, that makes me feel old, then I realise they mean early 2000s/late 90s and yes that’s now 20 years ago

Also, when having a cup of tea and a sit down after walking around town for a couple of hours sounds like a good plan...

Those TikToks where kids don’t know the popular songs from the early 2000s or a bit earlier

Kids these days looking like adults in general

Disney Channel’s quality in general

Everything hurts!

I moved some furniture around the other day and am still feeling the effects.

Myself and my partner were recently in the queue for an event. Got chatting to the girl next to us who told us she was 19 and she asked our ages, so I told her 33 & 31. Her response was ‘aw it’s nice your still getting out to these things in your 30s’. She was dead serious too

That's a definite sign.

I remember the days when I used to be able to walk around a shopping centre all day everyday and not stop for anything.

Now I'm looking for somewhere to sit down and a toilet

We have tiny little Nokia phones that we use for work. I’ve just had to text someone an address. Took me fucking ages. Pressing the number 7 four times to get an S

How the hell did I cope with one of these when I was a kid? It was “only” twenty years ago I’d have had one!

Spending a lot of money on expensive underwear that is both comfortable, non wired and sucks your bits in.

@Inforapenny Why wont you update the party thread you started?!




I've started feeling old lately as famous people I actually recognise are passing away!

Ah Completely forgot and I didn't realise It'd be so popular and in the end I couldn't go, not an excuse but a family member took their own life that week. So all commitments went out the window and put it all in perspective.
I know that some people really didn't like my opinion but I stand by my thoughts. Don't have a party if you're terrified of covid.
