Re: Insignificant Things That Make You Happy.
I just got invited to apply for a job. Not even sure what that means? Does it mean i'm in with a chance, or i'd get it if I applied? Nice to be asked though!

Re: Insignificant Things That Make You Happy.
The head of the dept that is recruiting to that post and is on the interview panel. So I guess I'd get her vote? Don't want it anyway..
Re: Insignificant Things That Make You Happy.
That sounds like it's yours if you want it then. But as you don't, good chance to recommend a friend!

Got a big, gay hug from a colleague who'd heard I'd been under the weather.

He'd love to. In the pub many years ago he professed that I was the third best-looking man in the bank.
Granted he was pissed and I suspect the pool of contenders was a bloody sight smaller back then.

Even though there wasn't much fresh snow, even though visibility was pretty poor. Snowboarding always makes me happy and I feel very lucky to be able to go so often!

Re: Insignificant Things That Make You Happy.
Had a small issue with the van, and noticed a couple of the HP fuel pipes were 'oily' whereas the feed pipes were dry! New seals it is then.
Had a look on YT and looked straight forward enough, except they, to a man, pulled the fronts off their vans to get access.
Time for a bit of amateur gynaecology then. They're behind the dipstick! After an hour and several 'FF Sakes!' Success!
Van even started afterwards too!

Re: Insignificant Things That Make You Happy.
I gave my youngest daughter our old car about 4 years ago.
A 2013 plate high mileage Peugeot 206 not worth a great deal but I knew the one they had was pretty hard up and they couldn’t really afford to replace it.
Well it eventually packed in and they got £120 for it from WBAC.
So she messaged me wanting to transfer that money to me

Italian shite iffin you dont mind! Hang on a mo...
Re: Insignificant Things That Make You Happy.
My 2013 campervan went straight through its last MoT. German shite ftw
Unfortunately it now has a lot of pretty lights on the dashboard, all relating to brakes/ABS/Traction control. Probably a dodgy sensor
