As we get older, we must all notice things that we used to be able to do that we can't do now. I have loads, here are two of my latest examples, discovered yesterday.
I can no longer
Jump directly on to my feet from flat on my back.

I'm coming up to the big 40, and there's loads of things i can no longer do. Drinking 12 pints being one of them.

I can't imagine I've ever been able to jump directly onto my feet from lying flat on my back, but a quick experiment has proven that I could still bite my toenails (if I so wished).
In my mind I thought I would still be able to do cartwheels - I can't (and really wish I hadn't tried)
