The other thing is the pathetic amount of crisps per packet! I remember when it took two of us to carry a packet home.

At the risk of sounding dim...what's a dip switch?

It was a small button on the car floor that you pressed to put your lights on.

Its that switch on your steering column that you use to dazzle people with. It used to allways be foot operated. (Headlight main beam switch)

[Jay22]

Phew...I'm not that old then!

You take a hot water bottle to bed even when it's not really that cold!

When you can remember looking in the newspaper for lighting up times.

And conspicuity lights used to be called sidelights.

Don't get me going with this. The amount of crisps in a packet or chocolate bars shrinking. Oh and these fancy crisp flavours. I don't want some lame flavour that they are trying to plug like racoon or hotdog I just want a packet of ready salted that's all.

If you don't remember what a choke was on a car then you are definitely a young un.
(I am not old enough to remember dip switches either).

The worst choc. bar for shrinking is wagon wheel! Its not a wagon wheel it is a pram wheel for a dolls house

My first car had a choke. I use my dip switch especially going down country lanes, also called a dipper switch. Shame other people can't use them properly.

I think the worst chocolate shrinkers are crème eggs, waggon wheels, mars bars and well come to think of it boxes of chocolates are smaller and lighter to.

You know you are getting old when you read someones post then realise yes you do actually remember dip switches or is that you are getting thicker?

[mothhawk]

You know you're getting old when this seems quite reasonable..

[Greenleaves]

When you start buying mens clothes in M&S

When you mention your father was born in 1922 to a group of friends...and suddenly realise that had he still been alive he'd have been 92!
..cor blimey...he died when he was 56....can't even imagine him being 'old'!
