No. You are absolutely wrong.

That's another way you know are getting old because you understand the phrases "the village shop" or "the village post office".

It's probably gathering dust in the back of her writing desk.

Yes there was a lot of rubbish music about then and I'm comparing a random 3 songs with the previous 50 years. I'm sure NewEra's opus is making some deep point about the human experience that I'm missing but I think I will listen to Rock N' Roll Damnation by AC/DC. Here is NewEra if you want to...

That's probably true but as an experiment I looked up the current UK Top 40 and played 3 of the songs at random on Youtube. I found nothing that entertained excited or amused me. And it's not just an age thing. There was one by a (band ?) called NewEra called "Birds In The Sky" and it was two...

If you remember when listening to Radio 2 was usually an indication that you were over 45 and wore a cardigan and slippers.

I play Fallout 76 on PC. The game had a rough launch in November 2018 but most of the bugs have been ironed out and it is famous for its friendly community and how helpful experienced players are to new players. Camp building is a lot of fun.

I was in my local Tesco last night at 20.45 and they play music in there over the PA. I was startled to hear them playing the 1979 hit "Chuck E's In Love" by Ricky Lee Jones, which those of you old enough to remember will know features the N word in its lyrics. Sure enough the word came out of...

I used to work on the Underground and women would often carry their tickets in bags with powerful magnetic catches on them. Wiped the magnetic strip clean. One woman got furious when I told her this and I explained it was impossible to change the effects of magnetism.

In 1986 I walked across the border from Gorizia in Italy to Nova Goricia in Yugoslavia. There was an old WW2 style watchtower on the road and I got no hassle from the guards when they stamped my British passport. The railway station in Nova Goricia had an old freight engine on a plinth and a big...

But these aren't "Dads" they are machines and in maybe 10 years they will have CPUs that will enable them to think. They will effectively be people. You are watching the evolution of a new form of life.
