What age did you start feeling old?

I think you realise you are old when you look around a room & suddenly realise that YOU are meant to be the responsible adult in the room, when did this happen???
It’s when you sit on the floor & have to think about getting up, the sports injuries hit harder now, you have to think about which knee is stronger & which one tends to give out more.
I try not to dwell on getting old & just enjoy whatever time I have.
I like a quote that is attributed to Mark Twain,
“Do not regret growing old, it is a privilege denied to many.”
 
A few days ago I was describing a random situation to my daughter and said; "this old bloke was doing....paused and thought about it.. he was probably about my age".
