I completely forgot as I just fell in love with that gorgeous new piccie....
(Truth is I'm not telling as some around here will then be able to work out who I am).....

lesser idiocy includes:-
1) Bangkok story
2) Flying from Boston to New york for Thanksgiving and ending up in Mexico City for 5 days
3) getting arrested by the US costaguard and having boat (not mine) and fishing tackle conficated tween US and Cuba ( BLOODY GPS!!)
4) Arrested 'procuring' flag of foreign power, unfortunately 40 ft up drainpipe of Major Govt building at time ( and in Foreign country)
5) With best mate who had a 'little' much to drink, missed turn , straight through window of furniture store , when asked by PC Plod what he thought he was doing he replied ' Well they haven't delivered my sofa, so I came to pick it up..' ( It was 30+ years ago) ..please..

one of the stupidest things I ever did was get my tie caught in a document shreder whilst working late one evening. (old shredder didn't have an off button so had to kick the plug out with my foot whilst being dragged into the jaws)

Once I stopped the machine I was completely jammed, couldn't get the tie off my head or out of the machine. The only pair of scissors in the building happened to be in my boss's office where he was in the middle of a meeting with his biggest client trying to impress the client with our firms professionalism. Should have seen their faces when I knocked the door and carried the shredder into his office for him to cut me free, didn't last much longer after that and was encouraged to change career........

And then there was the time with the incident with the Tomahawk, Jumbojet and wake turbulence,

Oh and the time with the rubber under pants and the custard.....

I just can't be arsed...

How do I know when to upgrade and what are the residual values like??

I just can't be arsed...

Only got to Two before I gave up ...found relationships work better without ring through my nose.


Not very good at marriage ...

... was to get a sex change. I 've had 49 wives but only 6 were my own. I have'nt got a husband yet ... but I'm trying, however I think I'm turning into a lesbian.
 
Re: The stupidest thing I ever did....

You haven't told us the best bit, what did Mr Dire Straits guy have to say, and did you keep your job or does this explain why you now rite about boats/forums/images/icons/smile.gif...................................

Re: The stupidest thing I ever did....

As I was hanging upside down covered in petrol, I was tempted to put a match to myself and end it there and then. But instead I got on the phone to Gordon Murray (he designed andf built this maniac 400hp per ton monster) and fessed up to what I'd done to the only car of its type in (semi)existance. Never had to speak to Mark Knopfler. Nor, amazingly, did I lose my job. In fact, I gained a certain notoriety as a result, although could never match Dave Calderwood when he was at Performance Car — he stacked a very expensive Ferrari...into the side of a Lambo. Doh!
 
Re: The stupidest thing I ever did....

YES... took out a Lambo... love it.

P.S. Do you recount this story to Sunseeker/Fairline/Leopard et al before arranging to do 'photo-shoots'...... any gory tales about c-ups at MBM , MBY etc..??

Come on somone must have done summat dull and stupid...??? So what have our journos done??

The only worrying thing is that you are all out there on the water at the same time as me, scary very very scary.
 
Spread Sheet for Wives

My tips for wifery would include:-

1) Get through 1st wife fast - you need to make sure you don't like marriage.
2) Only ever marry for money. You can buy all other qualities.
3) Spreadsheets are superfluous , logic doesn't come into it, what have logic and the fair sex have in common? Doh.
4) Beautiful wives are a pain .. they only go downhill from the day you marry them

5) Women are wonderful people, marriage is their way of making sure that we don't enjoy them too much.
