You know, that is almost exactly what I have been saying. A lot of things changed since you were young. The music, the fashion, technology, the curency (decimalisation), you are no longer 20 and handsome, can't drink as much, have a family and responsibilities, a lousy job that you hate but cannot leave because of the aforementioned responsibilities... In short, everything is worse than when you were young. You cannot change any of that, which makes you even more frustrated and angry. But look, someone has offered you a chance to change something. Even though it has nothing to do with any of your voes, you grab it because you have nothing else.
