Searching in the drawer for something that you are already holding in your hand..
Forgetting to go to the loo before you leave home..
Don't ask me.. I know nuffink..

No joke.
A few weeks ago after a delivery, without thinking I put Marge's medicine in the freezer instead of the fridge.
Was I in trouble!

Getting the wrong button in the wrong hole..
 Spending ages with a coat zip..in the rain...
Don't ask me.. I know nuffink..

I must have got old about 70 years ago then. Or perhaps it's what to expect if you're a bloke or get old...

Chatting to someone.. wondering what the hell their name is.
Don't ask me.. I know nuffink..

Yes,  and especially embarrassing when they seem to know you quite well!   :hmm:

I keep meeting a young chap while I'm out walking who greets me like an old friend and I not only don't know his name I haven't the faintest idea who he is. I don't know if I've forgotten or if he has me mixed up with somebody else.

Worse still -   you still use them.   :grin:

I still have a few things from the 1930s that belonged to my parents.  We live in a 1930s house, and they fit.  I have little interest in buying new 'stuff'. 

I realise I'm already old. 
Its not how old you are, but how you are old. 💖

Perhaps he fancies you.    :grin:

Next thing we see will be a 'Dear Miriam'  letter  from the lad,  asking for advice because his Father doesn't recognise him any more.   :grin:

I suspect he's an old friend's son who I haven't seen in years, has grown up and I just don't recognise him
