My Biggest DisappointmentOften the things we look forward to the most turn out to be a huge let down. As Freddy Woo puts it, "High heels in bed? No fun at all. Porn has a lot to answer for."
Well, Freddy, you are supposed to get someone else to wear them.
What's disappointed you lot?

Not more taxes, but better use of taxes...The NHS computer system is £2bn overspent, or think of it as two and a bit Aircraft Carriers.
The Tax Credits system costs the country £4bn because of the lack of joined up databases between HMRC, CSA and Tax Credits departments.
That's another four Nimitz class Aircraft Carriers.
Then there's ID Cards, which no-one wants.
Five more USS Nimitz class carriers in the River Thames.
To interrupt a post about aspirations and ambitions with some politics, the sheer wastefulness of UK government is mind-boggling.
The cost of the prototype Fusion reactor being planned for France is $9.1bn. This is being met by France, Germany, Japan and the USA, why aren't we investing instead of spunking ££££s on over-subsidized wind farms which will simply make electricity so expensive to generate it'll only be affordable by the wealthy?
