Answers on a postcard please.

"tsk... a second on your lips a lifetime on your hips".

I still go..

Tis good for the social and networking side, bad for the people burning in hell bit.

Actually no CofE, however the church I went to was one of those Young Earth, literal interpretation tulip.

Was brought up that way, so was quite difficult to break the spell.

Richard Dawkins and the Flying Spaghetti Monster helped

Just sounded like our lot...

Convent Girls are great!

Yeah sorry, until I actually started to think about it. Then I decided I didn't want to belong to a homophobic, misogynistic and bigoted club.

No need to apologise. You saw the light of His Noodly Appendage and crossed over to 'the one true faith'.

You were a churchgoer?

I would say "There's no god, so stop wasting your time on a Sunday morning".

That sounds interesting. Care to illucidate?

Nothing that exciting. Just a few times when I've woken up with nasty hangovers or got in arguments with girlfriends or talked nonsense and suffered a loss of dignity. Could quite happily have done without those - and could have been avoided by a bit of moderation.

But I think it's called growing up as you start to realise these things.

Well, I was already contracting 20 years ago.

If I could go back over 20 years (not 10) I would have studied law instead of IT and never entered this "profession".

[BrilloPad]

Oh I'd warn myself to be a bit careful with the booze and avoid a few undignified incidents.

The only thing I would change would be my investments.... but it's pointless speculating with hindsight. You just have to keep doing the right things and accept risk.

Borrow, borrow, borrow...instead of saving...

BTL......

Siphon funds off to asia...then get the dodge out of UK....

or the sensible option would have to been to start contracting earlier, but knowing what I know now....being leveraged upto my eyeballs would have the been the right decision...
