Message-ID: <Pine.OSF.3.95.970620113222.15140A-100000@ermine.ox.ac.uk> MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-britdisc@csv.warwick.ac.uk Precedence: bulk Hi all, I saw this thread on rec.sport.disc a while ago and I though it was quite amusing. I thought we could easily come up with our own ideas. you know you are getting old when....... ....you are in the middle of telling an amazing story about a point you scored when someone says "Hombres? who are they?" (I caould be nasty to Toby Green and say "Boleros? who are they?" But I won't.) ..... you hear someone on the other team saying "right, I've got the Old Git" ..... you find yourself saying "I'm not being lazy!! I'm working on my off- man D!!!" more and more ....you think you've made a decent first cut. The rest of your team tells you to stop clogging ....the word 'ibuprofen' becomes part of your everday language (nicked that one from rec.sport.disc) ....you bring a deckchair to tournaments. ....you are a valued team member because you have a car. any others?
