    There's a right way and a wrong way to do everything, and the wrong way is to keep trying to make everybody else do it the right way.

    One bit of advice my grand father gave me in my teens when going out...which made me laugh...was....never look at the mantle piece when you get the chance to poke a fire....but remember to check your ash bucket once you've raked it.... adding the last thing you want is a your poker smoulding for days...lol

    Always treat other people like you would be treated yourself. And, no one is better than you AND you are no better than anyone else. And finally, never piss against the wind or you will get your own back!

    From my aunty.
    Never put any women on a pedestal.
    Because while she’s on the pedestal she’s at just the right height to kick you in the teeth.

    It's better to be pissed off, than pissed on.

    I suppose unless you're into that kind of thing.
