But I painted a picture

I hear that picture is fading after lots of therapy.

How much did you pay her?

Doing the Truffle Shuffle does not an instructor make.

[SLUDGE FACTORY]

Starting my own business

Getting Married

Sort yourself out ff sake

[Ivortheengine]

Producing two successful children. It’s not a load of bollox.

Producing two successful children. It’s not a load of bollox.

Of course it is , self righteous nonsense

Having children is not a difficult thing to do

It's your responsibility and certainly not an ACHIEVEMENT to bring them up





Beating cancer , raising millions for disabled war veterans .....those are achievements


To be a father , grandfather etc is not an achievement

Some of the idiots that used to be on Jeremy Kyle were parents and grandparents and complete wastes of space

Not difficult to bring children into the world

[blue matt]

Producing four great 'kids' - and two (so far) grand kids.

Making it this far

This is the issue we have over here in the UK, we do not celebrate raising children in the right way ( but quick enough to play down the job ), Sludge just about sums it up with his opinion, he is right, its not a achievement to have children ( though speak to a childless couple who desperately want them and they might disagree )

BUT

Raising decent / great / successful children is, the world needs more decent people, it takes a father to do it, Im proud as hell of my kids, ive worked hard to push them in the right direction to hopefully improve the world ( in even the smallest way ) when they do finally leave the nest I will look back and say " yea, we did ok with them, they had all the time and guidance then needed from me and my wife " ( not all can say that ) so that imho is a achievement

My youngest boy was Hard Work, couldn't concentrate. On long journeys i'd sit him in the foot well of the car and throw Haribos at him. Kept him quiet.

She was well above the age of consent sonny

[Heathblue]

She was well above the age of consent sonny

Why did you think that ?

But to be serious, I don't know outside the usual family stuff, have plenty of life non-achievements but
its easy looking back at the missed opportunities with one of them is not buying the council house in which my Doris
was born when we could have had it on very favourable terms and I'd now be retired like the rest of the CCMB champagne early retired Far Lefties on here (The I have it but don't want you to have it brigade) you will of course be laughing your bollox of at this missed opportunity/ non achievement but i don't care I'm really looking forward to another 5 years slog and that's presuming / hoping that I achieve retirement age.

[Bluebirdman Of Alcathays]

Found 13 bags of crisps in a pack of ten recently. Not really an achievement but a high point. Then a few weeks later bought another pack of ten and three had gone off. It was the universe levelling things up and saying there's little point in striving.

Did you buy both packs from the same place?
Also when you say 3 had gone off had they gone past the date or where they actually gone off?
That's disappointing either way after such a high

I once found a £5 note
Also, once found a "new release" chart DVD in a car boot sale, for £1. Back when DVD was the way to go.

It's hard to say which is the biggest achievement. Technically the DVD would've cost more than the £5 to buy it in the shop, but I probably wouldn't have bought it full price
