My piece of serious advice would be:
Don't drive daddies car when daddies away.
It has the potential to seriously hurt your finances ..

Another one I've just remembered
Life is like a hot bath. It feels great while your in it, but the longer you stay the more wrinkled you get.

There are only two known methods for arguing with women......
Neither of them work!

I think that one is usually phrased as 'be mindful that the *** you kick today may be the *** you have to kiss tomorrow'

Once heard this said, and I have to agree: "Never trust a headteacher".
Personally, mine would be: "Don't trust the police, ever"

The aim of life is not to arrive safely at your grave in a well preserved body, but to slide in, tyres smoking and totally shagged out, shouting "What a ride!"
