Can anyone under 40 solve this!!!!!!!!!

The Old Aristocrat Sat on his chair at home........

What does it mean........

I bet if you are under 40 you will not get it...........

Answers on a postcard please to Blue Peter (God what happened to Blue Peter it never was the same since Shep died....you never had strange people throwing themselves down the cresta run in those days)

Have fun....and if the youngsters can't get it us ....er......more mature (and refined) people will have to educate them

Mmmm I am the wrong side of 40 at 45 but I haven't got a clue, all I can think of is Paul Whitehouse's character from The Fast Show - Rowley Birkin QC "I'm afraid that I was very very drunk" This character always made me laugh because I have also actually met someone who spoke just like him hehe !!

Regards

Mark

What's it all about? Please share!

I'm under 40 so it means nothing to me!

Never heard of that phrase (even though I'm 50) but your clue made it easy.

I've not seen it in this format but I suspect it has something to do with Sohcahtoa!! (Pronounced Soccatoa)

I'll explain the whole bit if necessary when the answer finally comes out!
