Are you an optimist or a pessimist? I was brought up to expect that in any given situation the worst outcome was likely to occur, and I have never been able to escape from this mindset. I wish that I could, but on the other hand I would not want to be in the happy-go-lucky camp, thinking everything will always turn out for the best. Where do you stand?
Well I could donate some bottles of Bailey's and a bottle of Australian Red, (see other posts). May as well bring the multibag of Seabrook crisps as well.
I have a positive outlook but I try to keep in mind what can go wrong and do what I can to ensure that does not happen. You can't control everything but I think it's possible to be a positive person with a touch of cynic and a large measure of realism.
