    I can remember watching John Craven's Newsround reporting the Challenger disaster on TV. You were a squealing baby at the time. Don't talk to me about old :D

    I can remember when we first started using steam power.

    Those were the days. I used to earn half an eighth' pence working for 20 hours in the wollen factory.

    I'd be more worried about the 'singing along to five' part rather than the 'feeling old' part tbh.

    Thats nothing. Back in the day, we had to push big stones into place for some triangle-shaped building, in Egypt. And we got paid nothing. Not even freedom, FFS!

    I'm 20 and I'm dreading the day when I explain to a child what a dial up internet connection was...



    (56k, ahahahaha)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 31,967 ✭✭✭✭Sarky


    You'll be deep in the cold ground before dialup leaves Ireland.

    I, as it happens, feel young and vibrant. In your face, you old crumblies...
