When my 1yr old hears my voice at nursery, when I go to pick her up, and comes running around the corner at 100 mph with her arms and feet flailing all over the place and massive grin on her little face 😀

The smell of freshly ground coffee as it pours from the stovetop espresso maker into my mug in the morning.

My dog waiting for me at the stairgate and wagging his tail when he sees me.

That's the best thing in the whole world ever isn't it....

I also like being the first in work into the single Gents toilet we have, the window is still closed so it's not closed, and I don't have to hold my nose - that's for the next guy.

Spraying paint. Especially strong colours- I sprayed my motorbike british racing green (*) and the feeling of the green covering over primer was just, oooooh. Absolute satisfaction.

(* actually metallic vert anglais, slightly lighter)

Getting a chirpy hello and/or wave from a stranger as I ride past on my bike. It's happened with an old lady putting her bins out and a child dressed as Batman in the last few weeks.

People saying "thank you" for helping them with something. Invariably when it's a ten second trivial fix and almost never happens when you've sweated blood for a week.

Binners

Goes without saying really. Though he's not that little.

Lifting the lid on a steak pie to gaze upon the stewy goodness inside untainted by extraneous pastry.

Banning forum users for offensive statements.

a good bum on a woman!

I had to read that twice to make sure it wasn't worth a ban also.

Getting next doors dog to bark constantly while playing with tennis balls with our dog in the back garden....
Because before they had a dog and ours barked a little while playing in the garden they used to slam their windows shut in disgust.

Pathetic but it makes me smile...

No one can handle a full Binners! 😯
It would take years of training at the Cirque du Soleil and a unhealthy amount of Yoga (Wont happen at my time of life) plus he has a tendency to go straight to the hips.

But he is very 'Moreish' 😳

Waking my 4 year old this morning. He was completely under his duvet, I woke him gently, and he stretched, farted and chuckled to himself before crawling into my lap and going back to sleep. Ace! 🙂

Realising that this morning, after everyone else had left, that I had 30 minutes before I had to leave for work. Breakfast on the patio whilst flicking through Gardener's World. Heaven.

Watching my 6 month old lab swimming out to retrieve a dummy from the reservoir.

And a special moment when I first discovered she actually has webbed feet. Who knew?

I was out for a ride today on the moors and bumped into an old guy who asked me for directions, we had a quick chat and it turns out he was 90 years old and out enjoying a beautiful day. I said "You look very well for 90 years old, whats your secret?"
He replies " Stay away from wimmin after you're 21 years old"
It put a smile on my face.

Dust on a trail. Kids happy when I pick them up from school and grinning when they see me. Falling asleep holding one of the kids. Waking up and realising it's Saturday not a weekday! A clean chain. Fresh sheets and a cold pillow. A warm hug after a middle of the night wee!

Was in a funeral car yesterday. There was an old boy going along the path on his mobility scooter. He stopped and removed his flat cap as we went past.
Proper old school gent, there can't be many people like that left.
