1) Too many to mention here but I wish I'd have seen more of the world. Still time to rectify that, but I will never visit all the countries/sites I would like to.
2) My love life could have been a less than the car crash it was. Having said that, it's all about fate imo and if things had been different I wouldn't have met Ms stew.
A godsend I may add which I'm truly grateful for.
3) My late father getting me into gambling....
Do you have any?

Choosing to smoke a second cigarette 35 years ago.
Never quite kicked the habit, having another go when I go to France in a couple of weeks. That's the only one. |

*When I mention gambling, I may add that my first recollection of a bet was two bob EW on a horse called Cry Baby in the Derby at 66/1.
I was very disappointed when it finished unplaced, especially when it was trained by the great Noel Murless. Needless to say I never knew what a pacemaker was back in those days.. |

An honest posting Mr b, and one tinged with regret.
Even God, if you believe in him, cannot change the past. But you can do something about the future. Make the most of what time you have got left on this planet by not regreting things you can do nothing about. Your starting point is RIGHT NOW! Most people's lives could be a bit better, but could have been a lot worse. Make the most of the better, and try to eliminate the worst. Because this is all you have got. There is nothing afterwards! Good luck! |

Good luck with that venture Stevie Strikes.I know only too well what torture it is to stop. Ms stew was a great help thirteen years
ago when she told me that she didn't like kissing an ash tray. |

You are indeed correct Slicer. Having said that, Do I not get charged for that advice? !!

Wish I'd spent less time at the office. Criminal waste of a life going to work all those years.

If you dont regret where you are in life now there is no need to regret the past.
Every action,decision,step got you where you are at this point. |

By:
Mr b, as you sound a little depressed, and that you are generally a good egg, I shall waive my fees for this quality advice. Just this once though!
|
|
By:
On the contrary Slicer, I couldn't be happier. I have much to be grateful for and the punting is going fairly well at the moment.
PS thanks for waiving you fee! |

Thanks for your support Mr Nick! Always good to have a 2nd one in case mine wears out!

I should take this opportunity to add that this is not meant to be a depressing thread, I'm just curious to hear other forumites
tales/experiences. |

biggest regret was turning down ticket to see bob marley in the mid 70s
but it was a lesson learnt |
|
By:
Donny- I would of thought your biggest regret was employing those managers that didn't control your and your brothers finances properly!

I should have married the blonde and not the brunette, I still feel devastated to this day.
|
|
By:
Ah, yes. The Kelly Adams lookalike
|
|
By:
Slippy if you had married the blond you would now be regretting not marrying the brunette.
The grass is fresher not just greener on tother side. |

By:
I asked you a few months back if you rated Kelly Adams. You didn't know who she was but you googled her and said you made a mistake not marrying a girl who looked like her
|

By:
You don't fancy Vicky Beckham do you Slippy?
|
|
By:
Bloody hell iawn, sorry but I don't remember that, maybe I had a few jars that day. Just had another google and yes she is very similar to my blondie. The one that got away for sure.
Well TL bearing in mind I married her doppelgänger the answer is yes. Guinness2dear is going have a field day with me now after that confession. |
|
By:
I hope she had more personality than VB seems to have
and about 1 stone more in weight. |

Having my biggest bet at the time, £202 win on Broadsword in the Triumph Hurdle at 15/8. (1981 I think) Would have traded 1.01 0n here.

Looking back regret being too sensible when young. Should have smoked more cigarettes
and got drunk more often. Young people should not be too serious, its not natural. |
|
By:
There's no regrets, no tears goodbye ...
