C2 will seriously affect the transient response of the power supply. I have no idea what the value is but it's shown as a polarised cap so I imagine it's in the uF range.
GND will cook the rectifier as this in the UK is only a few volts above Neutral. What you have built is an isolated DC supply with a ground which is dangerous. You have connected an AC ground with a DC ground.
Your external DC input isn't isolated with a reverse protection diode either.
A truely bad design. But I won't call you dummy. Just a fire hazard in the making.
