My Greatest RegretsWhen I was still quite young, I was offered the chance to spend several weeks in the South of France. My Uncle was going to drive me down in his vintage MG sports car. There would be sun, sand and, crucially, French girls.
I was too scared of the French girls to go.
What do you regret not doing?

FootballWhen I was 14 I had the chance to go to Holland and play for PSV Eindhoven’s youth team.
Well, when I say "I had the opportunity", I mean that I would have been put forward to go to the PSV School of excellence if my Mum had died.
See the thing was coming from a single-parent family my uncle who lives in Eindhoven told me, on a jolly jaunt over in Holland for my Gran's funeral, that I wasn't to worry if anything happened to my mum. If she died then he'd adopt me and put me get me into the football school.
Well, given that my Mum was in no way ill and is still alive and well 14 years on I didn't get the chance... but then again I never got signed up by an English team either so can't have been that good.
