How Do You Stay Young?

Signs I haven’t grown up.



I will fashion my hair into a ‘Shampoo-Mohican’ when I wash it

I kick up leaves

I am tempted to shoplift

When someone calls me Jeremy I think I’ve been bad

I will put an unattended tea cosy on my head

I still don’t like going to school (though now I’m a part time lecturer)

I like to cycle non handed

On cold days when my breath freezes I will pretend I’m a steam train

I still like swings and roundabouts

I still find anything to do with breaking wind amusing.

On long car journeys I will ask ‘are we there yet?’

I am messy

I mimic people

I pull faces at myself in the mirror

I go 'ooh' and 'ahhh' at firework displays

I play my music too loud





What do you do to keep the inner child entertained?
