Feeling Old

I remember when Ian Wrights son Shaun Wright Phillips broke into football and then played for England, that made me feel old.

Well, Shaun Wright Phillips son has just been called up for England U16's.

:ohmy:

I wasn't even aware that Ian Wright was a grandad (or even a great grandad)?

For me it's when I hear a song on the radio and the presenter says, "That got to the top of the charts in 1991". I'll think no f***ing way, that's 26 years ago. Or an event like OJ Simpson's trial, that was 21 years ago. It does really seem like yesterday. Blimey, you've made me feel old now.

I remember when Ian Wright's dad and his brother invented the first airplane!

Based on that, you're a mere whippersnapper

I hear that the son of Shaun Wright-Phillips son is looking like a solid contender for the 2038 World Cup in China.

I can't wait. I hear that they do good food over there.

In the words of the old Chinese proverb: two Wongs don't make a Wright

Could do a thread on what makes you feel old.

I have 5 of the new/smaller £1 notes in mint condition
I also have one old £1 note also in mint condition

Are they worth more than £1 each?
