Wat was the question????
All men dream but not equally. Those who dream by night in the dusty recesses of their minds wake in the day to find that it was vanity; but the dreamers of the day are dangerous men, for they may act their dream with open eyes to make it possible.

You no when your getting old when you need glasses to look at
Your phone or a street directory CHEERS GRC  :cheers:

You know you're getting old when you still use a Street Directory.  ;D

I'll add to that. You know you're getting old when you still use a Street Directory and don't care who see's you.

I'm 36 and I love using my street directory for work. Look up the street, memorise the surrounding streets then try and remember them as I get near! Although as I get older I seem to be rechecking more often hahaha!!!

Maybe I am an old soul?   ???

I usually ask the length in metric but the size in imperial, eg 4 meters of 4 x 2

Yep, your right.

20 hundredweight in a ton.

This was a very common weight when there was a lot of tin mining going on in the far north. The tin concentrate was bagged in hessian bags weighing 1 hundred weight.
