For years, you wanted to be treated like a proper adult, but now you're on a downhill slippery slope to a grand old age and you can't seem to find the brakes. You need expert survival advice, such as:
- Don't call anyone under 40 "young man" or "young lady".
- Do remember where your glasses, keys and wallet are to avoid raised eyebrows from family members.
- Don't wear a tartan rug over your knees on a car journey.
- Do make an effort to learn all the songs in the top ten.Â
