Default are you getting old too?? discuss...

well.. I sawed a piece of wooden baton today in the vice.. in the shed..

Went outside to shut the dog up..

came back in and couldnt find the piece- where had I put it- looked in my offcuts bin- nope ??? had the dog run off with it? looked round the garden

20 mins looking..in shed- in garden..





crikey- ! I thought I had gone loopy

then after 20 mins I found it.. in the vice still!! it so happenned that the size I needed was exactly the length of the vice jaws..


so what do you do that makes you realise you are getting older??

like walk in a room and forget why you went in there..

I forget probably the same amount of stuff as I ever did. As I get older, I think I remember how many times I forget stuff. When I was younger, I just didn't care.

Funnily enough, mine was vice-related too. A few weeks back I cracked the corner of one of my protective blocks of wood on my vice. It still worked, just looked ugly, but I had to get a new piece, cut it to size, finish it nicely etc. I thought, "that's the sort of thing my dad'd do". Then I noticed my grey hairs had finally become noticeable normally (rather than having to get really close/squint to see them), then at the weekend I turned 27. I'm even giving serious thought to buying a beemer for commuting instead of a weekend toy. Where's my cane?
