I now have a deeper understanding of your excellent potential for breaking bits and why you pursue it with such vigour.

Re: Insignificant Things That Make You Happy.
My pal from UK is here for 10 days. We gave him the apartment as a wedding present.
First day here and he's just given me a list of jobs he's gonna do while he's here. He likes to be useful.
I don't expect anything, but he was always my go-to builder in the UK, so I'll know it'll be good work

She's fine. They've saved £550 and both feel they want to give a little back
We've given some folk a free holiday and barely a thankyou. We don't want payment, but it's nice to be appreciated.

It wasn't the pipe and tool work she was expecting on her honeymoon .

Re: Insignificant Things That Make You Happy.
Just been on the blower to a motorhome broker who is 100% confident that we'll get more for our moho than we paid for her 5 years ago.
Which would be nice.
Cos that and the cash in the premiums would pay my mortgage off.

Re: Insignificant Things That Make You Happy.
I bought a suit 12 years ago and only wore it for my mums funeral.
I need it this weekend so dragged it out of the wardrobe with trepidation.
How much has it shrunk ?
No. It's very roomy. I've shrunk

Re: Insignificant Things That Make You Happy.
TBF, I think I'd stand more chance if I was fit and healthy - but he's 20 years younger than me, so I'm just going with 3 x weekly physio sessions and a gorgeous view

Re: Insignificant Things That Make You Happy.
I like proper letters. And writing them. I have a few friends in the uk that I write to and swap cards with. I'd almost certainly use 50€ of stamps - but only cos postage from here to the UK is so bloody expensive!! LOLPotter wrote: Tue Mar 22, 2022 1:28 pmI'm not sure I've used £50 worth of stamps in my whole life and unless I get some pen friends that insist on written letters then I doubt I'll use that much in stamps ever!Saga Lout wrote: Mon Mar 21, 2022 2:11 pm I bought just over £50 worth of first class stamps. They're going up from 85p each to 95p each from 4th April so that's about a fiver I saved.
If you need 'em, buy 'em now.

Re: Insignificant Things That Make You Happy.
Birthday cards, Christmas cards, the times you have to send documents or parcels by post (yes, you can use first or second class stamps to make up the postage for parcels). They all add up.Potter wrote: Tue Mar 22, 2022 1:28 pmI'm not sure I've used £50 worth of stamps in my whole life and unless I get some pen friends that insist on written letters then I doubt I'll use that much in stamps ever!Saga Lout wrote: Mon Mar 21, 2022 2:11 pm I bought just over £50 worth of first class stamps.

I just found out I'll get 10 weeks holiday next year, not sure what I'll do with it.

Online postage prints it to the exact figure.

Did you just misgender me?
But next month I can pay with this month's prices.

The Figaro passing it's MOT with no advisories and the tester saying, 'It's one of the best ones I've seen'.
He didn't take up my offer of buying it, mind.

Re: Insignificant Things That Make You Happy.
Mother inlaw not talking to us
She is not long back from Istanbul from getting a face lift. Her mate got one and the tits done and bingo wings. Anyway the wife and me are the last people to turn to looking for sympathy as she is still all sore. Think she just learnt that
