Regrets, I have a few...

A lad I was in the army with deserted and joined the Foreign Legion. He wasn't very impressed with them. He got out during the Falklands War. Apparently they have a rule that says if your country is at war you can leave to go and fight. He got a year in Colchester and soldier on. last I heard of him (late 80's) he went special forces and got a Queens Gallantry Medal in Ireland. He was a bit of a psychopath to be honest.

Its was just a fancy I had for a few months, work was being a bit shoot and I was looking for something different. I think it was around the time I saw a news article somwhere in New Zealand was advertising a job for an 'outdoor caretaker' type, can't find the link anymore but I was just searching around after seeing that for what other different stuff I could do. Work improved at home and I never took it further.

Heck! I'd love to live in that house and drive that car Pete!! 😍
@Drago!!! 'Yes lord Accy'. My slippers please.🧐 😉.

The house even had a built in hall-stand where you could have hung your Fedora & stood your collection of walking canes. 🎩

The car had a valve wireless that took so long to warm up, I was frequently where I was going to before the Light Programme was playing 😂

Its pointless looking to the past I think.
I'm sure most people did the best they could at the time with the resources that were available to them.
I think I should have told certain people and employers to jog on a lot earlier than I did. I also think I should have worked a lot less. I've never been very interested in money and despite having a lot at various times I couldn't care less.

The most effective soldiers generally are.

Joining this forum is a bit of a regret sometimes, I won't deny! 🤣

In a parallel universe, you instead joined the ironing chat forum, and right now are regretting that decision.
