I don't think it was really necessary to grade yourself Ned, unless you are bucking for some PC Award. We did dumb shit when we were young. Don't be too hard on yourself, think of it as a necessary part of our rite of passage into adulthood 😉

I was hoping you'd write up all your stories you hinted to in the other article - in fact, I was just coming to your site to check out the old article when I saw you'd posted this one! I agree with Eric, though, we all did dumb shit and there was really no need to grade yourself, except for narrative purposes I suppose. Great article, man!

Great tale Ned and told in such an amiable, readable, amusing and insightful way. If the story was a little shorter, it could be another contender for a slot in a future Dexodus Newslink. Cheers

A very enjoyable read, thanks! I daresay I would have obsessed for years over the missed opportunity with Robin -- while you're right to note that dating the boss's daughter would have been a terrible idea, it would have also been an irresistible idea to teenage me!
