You Know You're Getting Old When...

Good man, Peter. Now remember - let the dogs make the pace, then 200 metres from the line, kick for home, but only if you see the whites of their eyes. And don't look back - use wing mirrors!

I did just what you told me to do I kick for home at 200 metres from home and they left me in their wake with 198 metres to go.
One dog was crossed with a Saluki the other a Greyhound. I think I did well to hold them for two metres. No wing mirrors used just a telescope.

Congratulations. I hope someone prepared a nice bowl of water to soak your feet in!

It's my knees that want the help they will hurt in the morning. May need the whole morning in bed to get over it.

Together with breakfast and copious amounts of coffee?

Ah, yes, I can see it all, Peeps....the two of you lying there in bed...you lean towards her and gently clink cocoa mugs...

Then I whisper those three magic words.....

I was allowed to stay in bed till nine. I think that was mean.

Just turn over when you wake up it works.

Ah...you know you're not that old when you wake up and it works.

Not if you have to make a trip to the bathroom first!
