Probably one's that I would admit to involve not flying on Concorde before their grounding, ironic thing is I have made many friends & been involved with the Brooklands concorde since 2003 only because of their retirement;D

Also not seeing Mclaren win Le Mans with the F1  Cry

The rest hey ho it was never meant to be  Wink

Mine would be not taking the test to get credit for college classes...I could have taken fewer classes and learned more.  Also, not getting that breast reduction the insurance company approved me for.

I can echo Steve Z's post entirely... well, the M&D bit anyway. A bit like Alton Towers from my recollection... Rollercoaster, Ghost Train and then the bumpy one that loses all the money from your pockets Grin
I however had better luck with the 19yr old barmaid.... Lady PP is still here.. Wink

More annoying than all that rubbish is the night that I went to the car auctions with a mate, £200 in pocket, he had a ticket and I watched a horrid blue VW Polo roll through for £180, 6 months ish of both required... Reg.. A968 POR.

I was thinking... then it was sold.. TWAT

While reading the Times car section on the ferry back from LM a few years after, guess what was offered "By Negotiation" with a 968 Club Sport... A968 POR.

I'm with MGMark (well not literally, obviously!), I made a concious decision some years ago not to beat myself up about the past and to just make sure I learn from everything that happens.  I'm kind of a believer of "that which doesn't kill you makes you stronger".

I guess a regret has to be not bidding on (because I didn't have the dosh) on a pair of beautiful 59-60 Ferrari Tesstorsa exhaust headers that had been donated by Murray Walker at a Brooklands BEN auction, he had been given them by Enzo Ferrari when he went out to interview him, they went for £600!!! But the consequence is that I do still have my nuts and have been married for 28 years, so well compensated.

Kev,

Lifes too short.

After 20 years, I decided on a change. I'm now relaxing and doing the things like to do but also picking/choosing the odd contract to keep me in beer tokens.

Make the change.

I regret not having anything better to do this fair morning in North Lincolnshire but to sit here in the garden reading this at 5.55am.

I am just having a sneaky peek before early yoga class!   angel  Sitting in the garden sounds good tho!  You could have a look at the Pageant of Power website and sort a nice shopping weekend for Lady S!
