    The smell of the air after a good thunderstorm.

    Removing the the seal on a nice single malt.

    First mouthful of cold beer in a beer garden on a hot day spent slaving away away in front of a Computer and telephone.

    Laughing at Sir Alex and his hypocrisy re turning players heads. I hope we sell him to Barca for less than you offered. Laughing at Liverpool fans who think their broke team can afford Robbie. Laughing at the A**enal fans as the exodus of their better players gathers pace. Laughing at the Chelsea fans, for a million and one reasons. Laughing at Wet Spam fans for hating us just because, er, I dont even know why they hate us.

    The first day of the new football season. Less than a month to go, Im gonna make it, Im gonna make it :lol:

    Elgar or Vaughan Williams on the CD, a nice bottle of Cab Sav with the sunset over the Downs. Nothing to touch it.

    What are the chances that you keep both players when your own manager has said that you need to balance the books. I agree with you on the Fergie matter I was saying the same thing @ the time Real came in for the olympic diver, now he's @ it again with Berby. When the FA ask them to make the rules what chance have you got. Their players only get banned in the close season.

    Watching "Westward Ho!" steam under the M5 bridge over the Avon as I ride over the cycle path just knowing that if I get a crank-on along the towpath I'll overtake it (with cheering from some of the passengers) with enough time to spare to get over the Cumberland basin (Bristol Docks) swing bridge before it arrives.

    Happened twice in the last five years - happy serendipity!

    I could have waited to see what happened I guess. According to the gossip we will have no forwards left at all, even Bent is off :shock: . However, I really hope the "Olympic Diver" leaves for Madrid, or feels so like a "slave" that he wont play to his best until tied up and whipped to within an inch of his life. I though Utd players only got banned when injured anyway?

    The little shudder when I've finished doing a much needed wee.

    New stuff
    Pictures are better than words because some words are big and hard to understand.

  • The cracking sound you get when you smash a spoon through the seal on a new jar of coffee, then the smell of the coffee.

    Can't stand drinking the stuff though!
  • Mine would be being in a position to phone someone up if I want wallpaper stripping and decorating and leaving it to them. Sorry, but it's true.
    The real thing with having a few quid to spare though is being able to go into a book shop or record shop and buy whatever I like. It's better than anything. I think there was so long when I could only browse that I' still can't quite get over the thrill of it. Not cars/houses/boats/holidays. Just that.

    The sound of the garage door opening as my cycle is revealed to me.

    The very rare time I splurge out, and by a single shot of a very well aged scotch and just savour the smell for about 5 minutes first.
