I was thinking about ... how I am able to relate to an actress, who had succeeded in overcoming a drug and drink problem. She was asked about any regrets at having incurred the problems. She answered that while she was delighted to have overcome her problems and sincerely hoped not to return to them she had no regrets, and in fact would not have missed the experience for the world. I can relate to this. I fully enjoyed my career as a boozer (well some parts) and am delighted to be free of what was a huge problem, but nevertheless sad that it is not possible that I can take part in the better aspects. This is not to say that I do not regret all the pain and suffering that I caused others...
