I've never sought revenge on those who have occasionally deliberately done me harm - the dirty work has been done for me.
My favourite was when a journalist who had been foul to me wrote something deerogatory about a PR consultant who had been maligning me behind my back. I watched on in bemused fascination as these two hell cats destroyed each other publicly in the law courts.
The latest thunderbolt of retribution has been 30 years in the coming - but come it has to a pompous ass of an MP who wrote a vicious and mendacious letter of complaint about me to the chairman of Ford when I was i/c government relations there. He had called me about his omission from a guest lilst and I had been a model of diplomacy and courtesy - yet the swine claimed I had been offensive and cavalier (my Ford bosses loved this term) and should not be in my job. Fortunately the chairman binned the letter and didn't even reply to it, but over the years I would see the same MP posturing and ninnying and would quietly think 'Later for you.'
Well he's gone. Had his snout in the expenses trough all along and now been sacked, his reputation in tatters.
Me, gloat? Perish the thought (snigger snigger).
