What's something that's made you happy recently?

The news is all doom filled, so what's something that's made you happy recently?

Mine is finding Lemmy and all you lovely people (obviously). Also I had a workman round and he was a bloody lovely man.

  • It was my birthday a week ago and I got a dozen friends out for a meal, which is nice as we don't see enough of a couple of them and I'd saved the fact that a friend from London would be there, which was a nice surprise for everyone. Which would be enough to count as something that made me happy.

    Then on the Sunday I went to my brother's for tea and mentioned this as we were eating. When my niece heard that there were two women there (which I felt was a disappointingly low number) she declared that I was "ris". As an old geezer, I couldn't possibly use "ris" outside of quotes but this has given me the opportunity to bring it up a few times and it still amuses me.

    So two things that made me happy.

    Oh, then my birthday gift to myself was a Boba Fett helmet and blaster - it is going to take a long time for that novelty to wear off.

    So yeah, good week. Pity I have had the lurgy over the weekend but being "ris" has carried me through.
