Indeed you did. Some older or less open indeed people may be offended by the word Knackered.
But be careful with those commas, where there ought be full stops between two sentences (our American cousins call them periods, but this is altogether a different thing in the UK).
To delineate phrases from sentences there are intermediate punctuation marks you might consider - and you could get away with a semi colon or colon; which I love to use.
