Assumption is the mother of all f*** ups.
Use the ‘ignore thread’ option whenever you see another pointless question
The only bit of advice that I can remember my old man giving me was - was never back an odds-on shot
(although thinking about it, he did admonish when I was the class bookie at school and was facing financial wipe-out when an outsider was winning through at Wimbledon. "Why didn't you lay it off?" was his exasperated cry - fortunately Stan Smith came to my rescue and I was spared the prospect of forking out £8 or £9, a fortune to a 15 year old in 1972)

it is the greatest happiness of the greatest number that is the measure of right and wrong.

Always wear clean under wear, just in case you are involved in an accident requiring hospitalisation.

he was right about Cheltenham this year.
"Never explain"
Advice given to me by Rudi Vrba,
when I turned up to a departmental event with my pregnant missus,
and I hadn't mentioned the happy event incoming to anyone at work,
and folk were surprised.
Anything Rudi says goes as far as I am concerned.
RIP, great man, friend, teacher and colleague.
Never explain. Great advice.

My best advice to others.
if it looks too good to be true it's neither good or true.
