Random Irritations

Whether it was the right decision or not it's not worth giving it another moments' thought because you can't undo said decision.
It's done, forget about it and caryy on.

Exactly. If we're allowed hindsight then I used every penny I had, and borrowed up to the hilt too in the 1990s, but put it all into Apple shares, and am now a billionaire

Just heard that a neighbour on our street passed away from cancer on Friday. He's been battling it for a couple of years and chatting to him a couple of weeks ago, he wasn't even expected to make Christmas 2024. He played as much golf as he could last year and leaves behind a wife and two teenage daughters. He was only in his late forties.

Hearing Joe Dolce an Shaddap your Face on Pick of the Pops, knowing it will be stuck in my head for days!

It’s a classic.

Vienna actually sold more over all than Shaddap You Face.
Vienna was a big number two - you could say.

1981 was not a particularly great year as far as the singles chart went. Here are the biggest selling singles of that year. Quite a few are best forgotten.

I agree, not many there I haven’t danced too or still hear regularly.
And anyone who doesn’t remember Bucks Fizz has no idea what they are missing .
Cheryl Baker dined out on that for 40 years

It is an odd situation to be in, when I retired in 2015 at 52 1/2 I had to sit down and work out what my private pension and redundancy would per week and that it had to last me 15 years before state pension. Then couple in Missis Ts pension etc etc.
Not gonna lie and say I had a few headaches.
As I have mentioned before pension wise it has got better with some of our pension money being returned.

52?!!!! Some good financial planning there Tashy
