If you go to the self-scan checkouts in a UK supermarket and you have anything with alcohol in it, like the rum babas I enjoy, they have to come over and check you out. It's funny now. On one occasion I saw the list that the assistant had to tick and they chose to press the button marked, 'it's obvious'!

Still happens. My older kids find it funny. My 20 yr old used my season pass the other day that shows a screen with my pic. I guess it’s a compliment 🤣

I am in my 70's and still get asked. It seems some establishments are keeping track of how much they serve you. They scan your ID when you purchase alcoholic beverages and cut you off after 3.
The days of walking up to the bar to buy a round for everyone at your table are over.

Well, when I order wine with my grocery delivery, I have to show id—they can’t just leave it. But that kind of doesn’t count because it’s not about me personally. 😄

@Ghostinthemachine It really is, though. People born in 2000 are adults, now, some with children of their own. 😳

I can't remember the exact age, it was my early 30's, when the grey hair really started to show.

It was a few years ago, when we crossed the border to the UK. Now you need a passport.

Did we switch accounts Sally?
@HumanEarth Not that I know of Slappy. Furry women just run in the family. Braiding our underarm hair was a favorite pastime.
