I'm worried I'm sounding like my parents!

Maybe it happens to all of us as we "mature" but the best entertainment on the radio I've heard for eons has been the Radio 1 Birthday celebrations! The best part for me has been the Golden Hour on Chris Moyles - me, crawling along the motorway with other drivers thinking I must be doing some kind of remote audition for x-factor!! The issue though is when discussing the covers of classics such as town called malice with my other half, I caught myself letting out a nostalgic breath and stating "well, its not a patch on the original, I used to listen to that tune when I woz a young........, no shoes......, 18 miles to the nearest shop....,etc". Now, certainly the first part of my good ol'days speech was accurate, however there is no excuse for spouting absolute tosh - it's like cars "not been what they used to" - good, it's called progress - heaters, MP3s, cruise control, reliability...... ok, come to think of it the 2 things aren't connected - McFly doing town called malice and technological advances in travel, my only conclusion to this story is that, on reflection, I'm now ranting like my grandparents!!
