Remembering when switching on the TV involved having to wait for the bloody thing to warm up enough to show a picture...
Remembering black and white telly.
Remembering getting bollocked for sitting too close to our first colour telly (around 1970) getting told "you'll ruin your eyes"
Remembering when we used to rent the TV and video from Radio Rentals, and the video had a wired remote that you plugged in.
Sitting right now on the last train home watching pissheads projectile vomiting and thinking why can't you just go and die quietly in a corner.
Tell someone under the age of 25 that we grew up with 3 TV channels, no mobile phones or internet and they look at you like you come from another planet.

When you find out a girl at work you like is 11 years younger than you, so you know the age gap is just too big considering she is only 20
When you see a grey hair in your beard

Still have my old colour portable TV in my bedroom here which I've had since around 20 and still working it has my Wii on it but would Xbox work on it I wonder?
Anyone wish to beat my record?

The good old days even back then video recorders were even considered a technological advance...

Falling asleep after Sunday lunch.
