    My new Dangermouse and Penfold slippers.
  • A new pleasure for me today: perfect rain.

    I didn't know it existed before but it was warm, the sun was shining, and there was the finest of fine showers that didn't get me wet but gave me a lovely cooling tingle every time a drop landed on me.

    Must admit kinda expected this thread to drop down in a few moments, especially after the first reply. Glad everyone has something in their lives that make them smile :)

    We're just keeping it going until Will, Bhima and Speed King give us a further insight into their world and their mental state.

    The clue's in the word 'insight', which you have conveniently decided to ignore in order to be seen to be 'holier than thou'.

    Yes - and then making sure you've got every last piece of foil off... and making sure when the lid's put back on the logo reads the right way round from the front of the jar...

    Watching Top Gear with my sons, who laugh like drains at the daft challenges.
    Dinner with good friends and lots of nice drink.
    Pillow fights on the trampoline with my kids.
    That bit on a ride when you are all warmed up, full of energy and going like stink and its almost effortless.
    Thinking about my wife when she is drunk, she's a good natured nightmare.

    When a big project at work goes well.

    Being able to lead a normal life.

    Looking into the eyes of someone you love, and knowing that that love is returned.

    Einaudi (or any great piano music- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-ZJDNSp1QJA&feature=fvw for example)

    Classy bar, evening sunset, riverside view, girlfriend standing with you, looking across the water together. Perfect evening for me.
    "I hold it true, what'er befall;
    I feel it, when I sorrow most;
    'Tis better to have loved and lost;
    Than never to have loved at all."

    waking up on a work day feeling way to knackered to cycle the 10 miles to work and then remembering you own a motorbike.
    I'm only concerned with looking concerned

    Moi? That's the worst part about being better than everyone else, people tend to think you're pretentious. :lol:

    Love.

    Resting your head on the pillow when you're knacked and absolutely ready for sleep. And you just drift off...

    Getting back from that 3hr winter ride in freezing (or close to) temperatures and getting in a hot shower. Not worrying about the soap or shampoo for now; just standing there and thawing out.

    I was dining with Will Self, Damien Hurst, Tracey Emin and Brian Sewell in a small Danish Bistro in our emperors new clothes, reading beat poetry aloud and laughing at Aggieboys pretentiousness. Touche'. :D
