I said to one of my kids "I must tape that tonight!"

I then realised they had absolutely no idea what I was going on about

Been there done that, I’ve even got the tee-shirt

That is pretty old fashioned. Get up to date and look up the Videoplus+ number in the TV times!

Oh yes you know that when your gran kids say "What was it like in the olden days Grandad", i am sure they think i lived in the middle ages.

My son's finds it highly amusing when I say " I'm going to the pictures or the Barbers" ....
I've got an old VCR in the loft. I may have to get it out and show them one day.

My father-in-law said to my son the other day "turn the wireless on please" he was very confused, thought he meant his bluetooth ear buds

I cause problems when i say 10 bob instead of 50p, nobody not even my wife who is 9 years younger than me understands that

I was clearing out my attic one day and i had some boxes of my old vinyl records. My daughter shouted up to me "Dad how big were your cd players when you was growing up"
