YOU KNOW YOU ARE OVER THE HILL WHEN...........

  • asked to cut the pack, you call out for a pair of scissors
  • sitting in the pass out seat means exactly that
  • you define a good hand as the one that can actually keep hold of the cards
  • a prolonged hesitation causes others to call for a doctor rather than the TD
  • half-way through the play of the hand you asked to be reminded what the trump suit is
  • partners start to congratulate you whenever your declarer play earns a 50% board
  • after playing a spade on the first round of clubs, you accuse all the other three of revoking
  • you are given a sitting seat even though you didn't ask for one
  • your opponents mistake your comatose moments as unethical hesitations
  • you start arranging the your hand into 5 suits: black, red, black, red, black......
  • your % scores continue to move in the opposite direction to your age
  • asked " when's the next movement due ? ", you reply " when I next spend a penny "
