I certainly haven't.

I may not have found better, but I remember it was better

I don't really like the direction Australia is heading in.

What you say may indeed be true.
You are sounding like an old timer. " I remember the good old days when............"
Times change & we have to adapt to those changes & move on.
The young look forward. The middle aged look startled. The old look backwards.
Where do you sit?

Right now I'm sitting here with a grin on my face

I look back and forwards with almost equal measure.

Knowing that times change and adaptation is necessary, doesn't mean I have to like them

I do believe that I'm on the right track to becoming a 'grumpy old b*stard'

That reminds me, I remember when....

Yes! The small island of 'Atiu' -[ 'Enua manu' ...Island of Birds], located
about 190 kms [about 120 miles] North East of Rarotonga, in the central Pacific Islands nation of the Cook Islands. Meitaki manea!

Seems to happen to most males as they age. Mid life crisis & poof they are off after sports cars, hair pieces etc.

Lol, I don't know about 'mid-life' crisis - that's been happening since my teens and I still don't have a sports car, nor a hairpiece - but both would be nice

The older I get, the more closed my mind becomes to certain things - just like millions have experienced before me. At least I know I'm 'normal'

That's not a Mid-life crisis, it's a lifestyle choice, but what the heck......whatever your bag!!

Hairpieces tend to adopt an alarming vertical stance when driven around in Sports Cars [especially convertibles], and moreso when not securely glued down!

Tony,
We all have our phantasy places [your island] which rely on their charm through lack of development / population. Needless to say they don't stand up to close examination.We need them to keep our sanity in the real world.

smarteyeball,
In our life cycle we all go from conservative - to radical - to conservative again.
Hence the proliferation of grumpy old f**ts. You are following a well trodden path.
Even the ancient Greek philosophers noted this phenomena in their population.

Today......once again, recovering from a late night.

Well this morning I looked after my new grandson for a few hours while his parents and brother went to the Remembrance Day parade.

My son-in-law wore both uniforms in the same morning his best dress one for the parade then there was a call-out so he donned his work uniform to attend a rescue on the beach, he was the first on scene, someone with a broken leg.
