Aut disce, aut discede, manet sors tertia caedi

Well, the time has come for a self-administered beating.

Was bad enough. But then I followed it up with this:

Now, thanks to this:

I have to admit I've got a lot of egg on my face. I'm going to ask htpcl 's possum to lick it off me. Have any of the rest of the folk on here got things that upon reflection, or with subsequent information, wished they hadn't written; or positions they wish they hadn't backed?

I'm not up for election.

I have a real life that people envy: this is my distraction.

Retired musician (played with folk of whom you will have heard); not yet (but almost) 50; small independent income; clever, beautiful (and pregnant) wife; enough money to send the little blighter(s) to Winchester, should it (and/or any subsequent ones) be a he; reasonable health (fingers crossed); very well connected socially; about to move to a bigger house. Not much, but some work in the back catalogue of which I'm not ashamed.

Of course it could all end tomorrow, but I rather hope it doesn't. Being an idle socialite rather suits me.

Idle is as idle does. :)
