So what did you learn last year ? Share with us

i'm very much with the don't need to earn as much as I thought... this may be the year that I correct that..

it is the year I aged due to sheer hard work.. :(

happy new year all.
 
Just has to be things in 2015 now :wink:

So far in 2015 I have learned that we've found the Ultimate Jenga die that I thought lost forever about 6 years ago, that Mrs B loves limoncello a little too much, and that drunk Jenga is really, really hard.

Hopefully I'll learn something slightly more useful sometime in the next 12 months :D
 
1)Estate Agents are Lying Cheating Arseholes. I seem to relearn this every year, just to make sure.
2)Lettings Agents are even worse. This is a new one on me.

Apologies if you're a Lying Cheating Arsehole Estate/Lettings Agent, but that's how I feel.

We've bought something we like now, so the lot of them can piss off for a few years.

3) The feeling of having somewhere you can call your permanent home is FANTASTIC

that the cwll and devon police are hiding speed cameras in a horsebox , FFS ! thats not cricket :headbang:


:D that's not funny but it made me chuckle , i long since gave up on the notion the Police are there to help law abiding citizen's .
They are much more preoccupied with taking the easy money off the motorist :thumbsdown:

1. Lots about Type 1 diabetes
2. Salt is bad for blood pressure
3. Friends are very important
4. Your health is even more important
5. I like running :)

Hope the Diabetes is under control Adam...yes, echo that; Health is very important, as is family&friends.

Have a good 2015 mate, and hopefully see you at some meets this year :thumbsup:
 
That I do not particularly like my job any more.

The fascade of a happy relationship is only as good as the mask you wear and will do you no favours by painting on a smile everyday for the world to see.

Am in a much better place than I was 12 months ago in terms of mental health

I now know who my friends really are.

The truth with always out.

I am the heaviest I have ever been.

That I am less selfish since owning a dog.

You're a long time dead. Make the effort to speak to people who you regard as friends and trim the fat in terms of those that are just 'hangers on'
 
I learned that:
1. Moving to Vancouver Island and not freezing in winter is a good thing :)
2. I don't suffer fools gladly, never have and now I just ignore them, it's less stressful :evil:
3. Don't go to the Land Rover dealership and wait for the work to be done, they also have a Jag dealership upstairs and Porsche is across the street.....I barely escaped, phew !
4. I really like my 911 and don't want to change .(see #3 above).
5. LIFE is SHORT, drive a Jag or a Porsche or a ZedMR.
 
Little inspiration from the posts before mine.

1. I haven't particularly enjoyed my work as I was too focussed on taking. Need to change to giving. [Change idols from Jobs/Zuckerberg to Tesla/Turing/Berners-Lee],
2. I can't control everything (most of all people) - need to let go and forgive (but don't give them a chance to do it again). They will get what they deserve.
3. [If you believe in God] I will keep chasing Him with love and hoping to get something in return. I have learnt if I love His creation, His love chases me :)

In the spirit of my new found enlightenment and spirit of giving - I will give a hand to anyone on their Zed for a couple of hours at the weekend in West London :)

Best wishes.

God didn't create bacon... The Devil did it to tempt vegetarians....

Talking about bacon -> pigs -> speed cameras... I learnt quite a lot about speeding this morning :oops:
