No. Not Advocado & Poached Egg for breakfast, more a thread in the vein of Annoyances & Pleasures of Life.

Example. Polish TV are running ads for?  
Old Spice Aftershave.  
How is that still going? Anyone else get one once upon a time for Xmas?  
It came to mind listening to some 30 year olds talking last night about some old git at work who was 45. I harumphed and they replied with a nice “but you’re Phil”.

Or the parents you are talking to were born when you left secondary school. Which you still think was a few years ago.  
Or when your manager reminds you that September 2018 was a year ago. What?

Aches that take ages to go away

As a nipper you exert yourselves, ache for a day and everything is back to normal. Now you strain tendons and other weak shit and it hurts for months

I have a aching ankle from a 17m hike round the forest a month ago and a hurty elbow which feels suspiciously like tennis elbow but I haven’t a clue how I did that
