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

The plural of 'anecdote' is not 'data'.

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

Unfortunately it now has a lot of pretty lights on the dashboard, all relating to brakes/ABS/Traction control. Probably a dodgy sensor

Re: Insignificant Things That Make You Happy.
Changeover day today, last guests of the season arriving.
I love working winter seasons, but when it gets warm and windy, I can't help but look forward to the end !

I remember you bought a round for 5 of us, for less than 1 beer in your hotel
