I am only 52 and now some days need to use a mobility scooter else I’m house bound. It was a tad embarrassing at first I must say but it’s either that or stay in home all day.

That's a bugger mate. We all do what we have to though. Guy at my local has a candyflake red Harley Trike style one. He says it looks ludicrous but doesn't give a damn.

The amount of brochures I get shoved through my letterbox for Saga holidays, Warner Hotel breaks, retirement homes, stair lifts, bath hoists, electric recliner chairs, incontinence shreds and over-fucking-50s funeral plans does my head in.  It's as if these bastard companies are determined to convince you you're ready to drink your soup through a straw and shit the bed by default.

They can all fuck RIGHT off.

What's wrong with shitti ...... drinking soup through a straw?

Yeah, when I turned 50 I started getting different types of junk mail flyers from before, and when I turned 60 they all changed to those mentioned.

It used to be a standing joke amongst my group of friends to sign people up for Saga, stairlifts, funeral plans, etc a few days before their fiftieth birthdays. Then their birthday mail would essentially comprise of old peoples’ ads with maybe a handful of actual birthday cards.

I keep getting ads for local pub chains.

It's pretty bad when even Google thinks you need to get out more.
