Or........getting the chance to play St Andrews golf course on the day your wife is due to give birth
My Gran (who doesn't like me much) has her 90th birthday party planned. I have promised EVERYONE for 3 months I will attend, with wife and kids. People are coming over from NZ for this party, you see. Big family event.
Then, a rich friend rings up, who has a helicopter taking off from his garden (!), which is taking him into Silverstone for the F1. He tells me that a 4 seater cost the same as a 2, so if you can get a ticket in time, do come along....
So, a good 30 seconds of soul searching later, and I have my flying goggles ready. My name has been removed from 'the will' for ever.
At least I retain my title of 'least popular grand child' by a long margin.
