A great bit of advice I saw in a film was in 'The Bronx tale'. The gangster tells the kid who he has taken under his wing that if he wants to know if a girl is worth seeing again he should open the car door for her and then walk around the car to the driver's door. If she reaches over and opens it for him then she's worth it. If she doesn't then it shows she's selfish and only thinks of herself.
My late dad always said never be jealous or envious of anothers success or good fortune, simply strive to be as good if not better than them, and he always said if haven't got anything good or postive to say then say nothing. Unfortunately the latter advice I find hard to stick to when it comes to all things football.

For some reason it really used to annoy me when girls didn?t lean over and unlock the drivers door after I had let them in. Not sure why and I never acted on or said anything about it though. I would just have a mutter as I walked around to the driver?s side.


Not had a car without central locking in at least 10 years though so, happy days, it is no longer an issue.

And of course you made a cameo in that film JTT, so it's likely as not good advice.

I can see how you were frustrated by that one, because you didn't get the full story. It should read:


"Before you judge someone walk a mile in their shoes; because then you're a mile away, and you've got their shoes"

    • I don't mind people reading the Telegraph so long as they do it in the privacy of their own home and not in public where children might see them
    • Doesn't surprise me, the same demographic voted heavily for Brexit while the media would have you believe it was solely the Red Wall that did for Remain. Of course, Farage & Tice are classic examples of that demographic. I read somewhere that a lot of it is driven by boredom and mischief, the thrill of being a disruptor. Let's hope that by the time they start soiling their beds, there's some poor souls still left in the NHS/Care System to wipe their bony backsides. On that subject, at the last GE a Reform voter was asked how would they personally pay for health care if Reform privatised the NHS as Farage has proposed. ''Oh, I'm sure they will look after us somehow''. And we're not supposed to call Reform voters thick?...
    • Should this thread have the words "Carry on" added to it ? That of course would lead to questions on who plays whom  Sid James as Farage or is Kenneth Williams more appropriate 🤔  We could have a whole separate thread on this alone.  
    • For reasons I don't wish to explain, I have 2 good tickets to sell for the Champions Cup final on May 24th in Cardiff.  It's Bordeaux v  Leinster Northampton. Face value is £112 each but will accept less if there's genuine interest. Send me a PM if you are.
