Three random things which please you

Cracking an egg with a double yolk
Putting a hot razor to my neck and doing the first stroke of a wet shave
First sip of a pint shortly followed by the first drag off a tab
The steam that hits you when you open the box of a takeaway pizza
When by boss at work says “I’m going to work from home tomorrow” – essentially means I have been given a day off

Are you me in disguise ?
I’d go for that lot as well !
 


That feeling you get when leaving work before going on holiday for a few weeks....

Standing in the cold and rain, all wrapped up watching my youngest lad play football....

Texts from my oldest lad when he's away travelling (he gets himself about) and the conversations about his travels when he gets home....
 
Coming home to find the grass and hedges have been cut
Getting that last bit of crap on a skip jenga style and the miserable skip fella chucking his net over it
Finding a parking space straight away
 
Seeing people my age who are bald

Seeing people miss their bus

People dropping their shopping

A supermarket carrier bag I was lifting out of my car boot with 2 litre bottles of vodka split and the bottles hit the deck. They didn't smash.

So fuck you.

:lol:
Playing a new album for the first time (I have two to play today)

Arriving at the top of a big hill with no one else in sight

The sound of the sea breaking on a pebble beach

The first two, especially are the second, are blessings to be treasured

That sound of the water receding and the pebbles crashing into each other after the wave runs up the shingle is magical.

Seasonal pleasures
A motorbike ride through the Cotswolds (or just about anywhere really) on a dry Autumn day
Finding conkers
The smell of smouldering leaves as it gets dark

I love finding conkers (I've got a big bowl full of them in the dining room)

My Dog greeting me when I get home

Rain lashing down outside when I'm cosy in bed
 
Seeing people miss the train. Even better when it’s still standing ready to depart and they’re there pressing the door open button to no avail.

Leaving work on Friday and heading straight to the pub.

Opening my FPL app after not seeing the results/who’s scored etc. and seeing a whopping score.
