I told my kids when it comes to work,


1 do something you like.
2  do something you are good at.
3 do something hopefully someone will want to pay you to do.

Sadly only one of them took any notice.

It's different these days, apparently fresh out of university graduates have trouble finding jobs. Sad

But I told my daughters when they were at school, get your exam results first, then if you must, go nuts for a few years, then find a proper job.

It worked.

pin this on your wall and read it daily

The moving finger writes and having writ
Moves on :nor all thy piety nor wit
Shall lure it back to cancel half a line
Nor all thy tears wash out a word of it

Oh goody, Dobbo.

So in that case the majority of us should just order a suicide pill now and have done with the bloody palaver then?

It is not saying have no regrets, it is a warning to be careful of what you say and do because you cannot go back and undo your mistakes and a lifetime of regret may follow.

Don't associate with idiots in business or personal life.  Sooner or later you will regret knowing them.

Never ever lend anybody any money ever.....it will be the last act of friendship you have with the borrower.

If you truly value them give the money to them, if you don't value them, then don't.

PS I'm not talking about the odd five or ten quid when down the pub and the cashpoint is closed.

As Tommy Cooper said "It's not the principle it's the money."
