I have just read of seven things that are supposed to mean we are getting old.

1.  Apparently only older people carry purses and wallets  - the youngsters all pay for stuff with   
     their phones.    Same  if you are in a shop and produce a debit card.

2. If you have a landline, you're officially old,  too.

3. Only old folks answer their phone by putting it to their ears,  the youngsters use headphones or talk
    into their speakers.

4. Only us oldies watch television and listen to the radio.  Young people stream their shows, and curate
    playlists.

5. If you sign off your texts with your name, that's another giveaway, because the receiver knows who's        sent it as your name pops up.

6. Lastly, there's the trouser issue.  If you wear yours big and baggy then you are young. Straight legged        or similar means we are old  -  let alone elastic waists.   


So there we are then.   I am officially  99 yrs old.   

I never used them but I think they were single occupancy for either sex. The sign on top shows that including disabled. I can imagine they were occasionally dual occupancy .

You certainly do lead an exciting life Scrumps.
I don't know how you cope.  

Nah,  don't think I've ever seen them around here.

Are they for both sexes -  and everyone else in between?

I think that was two individual cubicles

Quote from: klondike on Yesterday at 05:44:51 PMI think even the 20p or whatever strange single cubicle things have gone now. Best bet in Northampton are those in the Grovesnor center and probably account for 50% of the footfall.

Don't think I've ever seen any strange cubicles?  If I have I probably wouldn't have known what they were for.   

The Grosvenor's a bit too far from Rushden if I'm bursting though.

More like he'd had a good night and overslept.
