Parents.
British summertime
I could write a long list of girls who'd offered it to me on a plate, with a side order of salad and chiabatta, but now I'm with MrsPJM none of that seems to matter.
I think I've done well enough 8)
If I were to lament for a moment then I suppose it would be listening to all the people who told me I was thick, I didn't learn I was actually proper clever until very recently. Actually, that sounds more like I'm bitter and twisted about it - I'm not, I just don't blame anyone else but me for my own inferiority complex.
Wasting my younger life being immature. If I'd been a bit more grown up about things, I would not have shafted up my A levels or my degree, nor made the same cock-ups in relationships.
Mind you, it all worked out in the end, so I guess the pain was worth it.
Oh, that and my wife never meeting my grandad. They would have got on really well.
[i]she went atm[/i]
i don't know what this means... she turned into a cash machine ?
DezB it means it went from one place(A)into another place begining with the letter M, give it a google if your still struggling 😯
I nearly didnt post, but im so glad i did....
totally worth it.
The greatest disappointment for me is my failure to win anything beyond £10 for my lottery ...
never meeting my dad. getting into a bit of trouble in my youth.
ill health curtailing my riding now.
life is pretty crap sometimes.
No hoverboards, power laces or auto-fit jackets with drying function ala Back To The Future II. Flying conversion & a Mr Fusion would have been nice too
Dont worry, hoverboards, power laces & auto-fit jackets with drying function will be on sale by 2015
Getting into debt, started at 18. Still paying* it off.
Although that's more of a regret than a disappointment.
*servicing
Definitely spending too long in relationships hoping that they would get better/work out.......
.....you don't always know when it's right, but you do always know when it's not.
Selling my huge collection of original Star Wars toys for £35 when I was in my early teens.
Not having kids!
(apparently..)
Dons tin foil plated armadillo helmet & heads for the nuclear bunker..
😈
being born english.
she went atm
i don't know what this means... she turned into a cash machine ?
Money shot....
My disappointment: realizing that if I was motivated by money, I should have sold out to banking rather than law. Would be mortgage free by now....
I'm a bit disappointed at not meeting Ton yet, sure I will at some point!
others include, 1st wife (we had great kids though!) Going self employed, not all it was cracked up to be, & my current job which is a lot more disappointing than I ever thought it would be.
Screwing up my degree,
Choosing the wrong degree in the first place
Several missed opportunities
Not having climbed several of the classics before leaving the UK
Bad money choices 13 years ago
ATM - you mean A2M.
Uh, I imagine.
bright yellow Ipath pasty shoes.. they looked awesome in the advertisement but in reality they were narrow across the toe..
A man from Greenock has just lost out on a £109,000,000 euromillions win as he did not have enough money to pay for his usual 3 lines and only got the first 2. He had put the same 3 lines on for the past 2 years. Guess which line came in? I think he is feeling a bit disappointed!

Heard that type of thing a few times!
Got a feeling that I'm bumbling through life and falling way short of my true potential but not knowing what I should be doing about it or having the balls to step out of my comfort zone and one day realizing what I should have been doing and being too old to do anything about it,

having the balls to step out of my comfort zone
I really wonder sometimes if it was such a good idea that I stepped back into mine..

My moaning, whingeing, insulting wife. Not the same happy, horny, fun girl I married. Just thrown her birthday present back at me this morning saying "I didn't want one of those!"
There's an easy solution to that. Simply insert the prefix 'ex-' in front of the fifth word of your post. Problem solved

Not going to see the White Stripes at Blackpool tower ball room about 10 years ago having decided I didn't like them on the basis of one over played single.
That and 98% of my working life.

Ah, now I got it. UEurgh! Why would you mention that on a public forum?
Dirty boy.
Just to see if she's dirty enough to do it ?

I went. It was coruscatingly loud. And absolutely magnificent. Buy the DVD.
Never got to see the White Stripes either 🙁
Letting the powder coaters shot blast my Nicolai frame with breeze blocks. Cracks appeared soon after. I strip frames at home but I was too busy to do the most important one.
total arse
Losing that auction for JLS tickets at the last minute because I was being stingy. 🙁

Feeling that I was bumbling my way through life and so stepping away from it all to do do something new, then having that fall around my ears leaving me unemployed (and currently feeling unemployable), when I could've just stayed sat on the gravy train.

another +1
i know i've got the skills to be rich and successful like deadlydarcy, the thought of heated wing mirrors and a dashboard that tells me when a bulb has gone makes me shudder with excitement. but it sounds risky and i'm in the middle of saving for stuff 🙁

Same here 😐
Often think I left the army too early, perhaps should have stayed in and done some more tours and tried some different stuff.
Then I look at my life now; nice wife, OK job, house and then at my (still present) limbs and think maybe I made the right choice after all. I think I just get a bit bored. Sometimes disappointment is in your head.
Surely you're young enough Phil?
BTW, my "[i]Me[/i]" meant pretty much the same thing. But worse.
Sometimes disappointment is in your head.
Surely it's always in your head by definition isn't it?
i am young enough debz 😀 and my little business plan doesn't require a huge amount of cash to get started, main thing is time, the right people and the right research. and insurance
going to get the wedding, honeymoon and house deposit out the way first i think

There will always be something "to get out of the way first" that you will use to stop yourself just effing doing it.
Make that change philly.

Adding up all the time I've spent on this forum
dammit 40DD, i know deep down i should be getting on with it, before someone else sets up a company doing the same thing..... but i'm apprehensive and everyone i could ask for advice is currently being super awesome and going out of their way to help us with the wedding so i really can't expect any more of my friends and family.
