    When you wear a coat to the pub because you'd rather be warm than care about how you look.

    When the highlight of my day was watching a woodpecker spend 10 minutes on the bird feeder,
    closest its ever got to my back door step, and calling my 13 year old niece to come and look, and she looks at me in disdain as she doesnt get my wonderment over "another bird". Prob says more about bleedin millenials than my age mind!
    Thats another one..........."millenials" as an insult!
