Ah the 'hard way" - the clarion cry of the 'I went to the university of life " brigade who ware it as some kind of badge of honour. Just like the laws of physics, "the hard way' is relative to those making the statement. Seen good uns and muppets from both routes - its all to do with the individual. IMHO
