    When you start buying shoes on the basis of how comfortable and durable they are.

    Hot Chocolate and a Foot Spa sounds good to me too, though!

    On the other hand you feel young when you see someone who used to be in your year at school who now has 3 kids. At the age of 20.

    There must have been at least 4 or 5 girls who ended up having babies just after our GCSE's and since then most of them must have had another and a few more have probably had babies too, I went to my local comperhenivse school, which had to take anyone who did not select a grammer school from the area, so it had lots of people who just did not want to be there.

    I don't know about hot chocolate and a foot spa, but mulled wine and a foot massage is good enough for me at the moment :)

    You know you're getting old when your kids start referring to you as "mother" and they pat you on the head as they gaze down at you pityingly.

    Sounds a little racy for me. I'll just pop on my cardigan and relax in my rocking chair with a copy of the Racing Post. Ahhhhh.
