This.

When my youngest went in to hospital, it was like being on the set of Doogie Howser M.D. The mention of that will probably make a few people feel old

When I was younger (17/18) i played senior rugby at my local club with my old tutor, it was very weird as you say, more so of how to act with them especially in the club afterwards.

Thankfully she was 20s by then. And she's a back and I'm a forward. Would have been weirder if we'd packed down together in the scrum

The first time I felt old was when I talked about the music I liked to a work colleague, and she said she knew it because her parents listened to it … and then she looked pityingly at me … this was 20 years ago so it’s probably grandparents now …
