...your nokia phone goes off in a restuarant and gleefully plays the "nokia tune", as the whole room turns around to laugh at you....

I was in a restaurant, eyeing up a lovely looking plate of food on a nearby table, when a friend pointed out how attractive the girl eating it was. I hadn't even looked at her.
Suddenly, I realised I was past it.

she asks you whether you want a good meal or sex...guess which one you pick.

I recall the three day week well, you can`t imagine things like that these days can you?
And I recall coming home for school hols and the tv shut down very early in the evening for a period.
I also shall never forget the sheer excitement of Radio Luxembourg starting to speak in English at 7 pm in the evening.
The first time any ageism hit me was not exactly like a wet fish hitting me in the face, more like a frozen shark jumping from a hideously long freezer in Iceland(where Mum goes, not the country).
I was just loading the vehicle after a gig when some female punters said goodnight, I enquired if they had had a good time.
"P+++ off you old git!" I was told. Ouch! And I was only 37!
