It's one of the first things I do before breakfast.

Then watching the last series again because you can't remember what happened when you start the second series the next year.

You know your getting older when -
Your try to straighten out the wrinkles in your socks and discover you aren't wearing any.

I went into the utility room to get some clean undies out of the airing cupboard, but opened the freezer instead and spent five minutes staring into it wondering what the heck I was doing! One of these days I’ll probably find my smalls in with the frozen peas! That’s when I’ll know I’m REALLY old! 😱
