Retired, abroad, with missus, no kids, no debts, prosperous, able to pursue my own hobbies and interests (not interested in cars or the high life), like travelling.Hard Brexit now!

Done the high life - well not the beautiful women bit - but loved the fast cars, travelling and partying like a nutter!
Now married (no wife!) with husband who did lots of the high life stuff with me as well ... and the kids. Love this too and no regrets cos I had already done the other stuff ... and I'll at least get the fast cars again, and do some decent travelling with then little one is a bit older. Probably am past the illegal raves around the world now tho', sadly.Comment

I voted for the family option.
I dont know why like - cause that's what I came from, and I've spent my entire adult life getting out of it!!!
But now that I'm "of that age", loaded, massive house, and living it large...I kind of just wish I had loads of kids.
Grass/greener/etc.
Its also an unfair time of year to be asking this - everyone wants a massive family round Xmas don't they?The pope is a tard.Comment

I think it's reasonable to assume that many of you are very, very ugly, and hence will not be able to use the (b) option anyway.

Can I recommend the Bermuda Triangle,well worth a visitOriginally posted by sasguru View Postlike travelling.The court heard Darren Upton had written a letter to Judge Sally Cahill QC saying he wasn’t “a typical inmate of prison”.
But the judge said: “That simply demonstrates your arrogance continues. You are typical. Inmates of prison are people who are dishonest. You are a thoroughly dishonestly man motivated by your own selfish greed.”Comment
