40-something is the new 30-something

The Guardian had an article today about how the media seems to to be full of people writing about the angst of becoming 40. Apparently there are more TV shows about the subject in the pipeline. Is the media controled by people the same age as me?

They also had a section on 40 things about being 40. I didn’t relate to many of them, but number 20 really struck a chord.

20. You go to the pub less often due to the belated realisation that it’s rubbish and makes your clothes smell.

    I haven’t reached 40 yet but I realised that a few years ago.
