[Closed] What are you thankful for?

Come on............ are you all that used to arguing with each other now that you have nothing positive to say and no one you want to say thank you to.... come on....

*has hippy moment*

Come on group hug?

Actually, in relation to the great cause you did your run for, I am grateful every day for the gift of sight. Seriously.

I'm thankful for my, my family and friends good health.

*ps: and the fact that Binners can lick his eyebrows.....*

I think you've just got the entire female contingency on the STW forum quite excited! I used to know someone who could stick his tongue up his nostrils, and he was never without a girlfriend, but licking his eyebrows he MUST be popular! 😉

Anyway... Rather predictably I'm thankful for the sport of Mountain Biking, cos quite frankly without it recently I would have lost the plot totally! Riding bikes, and thinking about riding bikes, is keeping me sane currently so long may that continue.

Also thankful to the (drop dead gorgeous, and witty, and approachable) nurse who's had to take my blood a few times recently, cos I HATE needles with a passion, and she made it relatively pain and embarrassment free.

Toilet Paper.

Binners, earlier:

My wife, family, dogs, health and although I tend to moan about it on a daily basis; my job.

I'm thankful for the use of my leg... Easy to take them for granted til one of them stops working, and it was a combination of hard work and excellent surgeons but also sheer good luck that meant it healed properly.

If all the poor man can manage to do is lick his eyebrows, 'tis no wonder he has to sit there cadging an occasional eyeball lick from passing strangers.

Thankful for having great friends, old, new and not yet met.
Also for all the wonderful forms of life that we share this planet with.

With out these I'd be nothing.

Also very thankful for my fitness and good health, Im one lucky sod.

Amen, sharki! Good to see you are doing well.

Think I'm thankful for life in general. It's rather good. Not knowing what might happen next week, just knowing it will involve bikes and mates and laughs.

Also things going to plan, dreams and hope, and the three coming together.

my friends,my bike,my guitar,nature,jelly babies,rush (am going to see them this sunday at n.e.c :D,nin,that i'm fit enough to ride my bike,steve rothery (marillion guitarist),pink floyd,computer games,and everything else that's great about the world.oh and not forgetting this site and setting a scene site.well you did ask 😀

Mrs Grips.

Did I miss your charity appeal BP? Sorry.

You can still donate should you wish [url= http://www.virginmoneygiving.com/Debbie_Edwards ]www.virginmoneygiving.com/Debbie_Edwards[/url]

I am thankful for the music, the songs I'm singing..
I say thanks for all the joy they're bringing..
Who can live without it, I ask in all honesty..
What would life be..?
Without a song or a dance what are we..?
So I say thankyou for the music..
For giving it to me..

(Warning: Gooey)

It's our 17th Anniversary today and I am so thankful for my wife. She is amazing. Sometimes it takes something bad to happen to make you realise these things and recent events have made me even more thankful than ever.

Is that giant purple font for the benefit of partially sighted people or simply lack of taste? 😉

For what I've got:

Seriously.

Every day (almost)

Thank you Mr Grips and my huge pink font had two aims one so that visually impaired people could read it and two to pi** off my lovely other halves delicate designers eye twitching in horror.

Thanks so much for the sponsor greatly appreciated

Debs x

thankful to be able to go out on my bike pretty much when I want to and be able to do it again the next day

I'm just grateful I can lick my own eyeballs.

My wee boy, my wife, the fact I enjoy my job, the fact that both my legs and my lungs work pretty well despite some rough times, my home and my bike.
Guess I'm actually quite happy with life in general.

I'm thankful for knowledge of grammar.

"For what are you thankful?"

Nuclear medicine. Wonderful stuff. Thankful indeed.

My health and fitness
Bikes, riding them, and the cycling community in general
Good friends and family + all the other people you meet with a sense of generosity and perspective
The ability to think for myself... although I think it gets me into trouble sometimes!

I am grateful every day for the gift of sight

..and all the other parts of me that work more or less they way they're supposed to. Physically and mentally.

I'm just grateful I can lick my own [s]eye[/s]balls

there - FIFY

..or is that just me?

waking up each morning 😯

My children.

Food. I for one am very glad that it exists, especially cake.

Oh, and sunshine too. I do love sunshine. 🙂

My family, my house, my job, my health, and for the latter, the NHS (especially the nurses and the physios).

I'm thankful for the modern surgical techniques and the surgeon for fixing my heart. Without that, I'd not be the super-fit, wicked awesome 10k runner and shooter I am now.

Well, that and my dogs. They make me happy, even when they wake me up at 4:45 like they did today.

I'm thankful to the Middle Eastern guy who bought Man City.
I'm thankful to Roberto Maccinni for being Man. City's manager.
I'm thankful for my consultant psychiatrist and the mental health nurses who keep me mentally health'd, pretty much on demand.
I'm thankful to the fundraisers who do a sterling job of ensuring my wife's place of employment stays open and keeps us in the lifestyle to which we aspire.
I'm thankful that neither my wife, daughter or myself are in need of the services that my wife's employer provides.
I'm thankful for the rain today that cut short my riding plans (I wasn't in the mood for the planned ride)
I'm mostly thankful though that my wife is an absolute angel and deals with the heaps of catastrophes I can and do create on an all too regular basis with a calmness and quiet determination and that she loves me more than anything she ever could.
I'm going to have a little cry in a minute 😳

awwwwwwwwwww that's lovely see you can all play nice x

Right.

My Bike
My Mates
Dry weather and dusty trails,
My health
But most of all and non come close...

My kids.

pretty much just life in general, and being in reasonably good shape these days after surviving congestive heart failure 6 years ago.
and that 14 months ago a certain amazing woman agreed to meet up with me for tea and cake, but wasn't disappointed by the lack of both items when we got to the place i chose... and is still happy for me to hang around with her, refusing to "grow up"!

The music.

For giving 'it' to me.

Dear Jesus, God, I'm thankful for the winter snow, and the things that grow, on the way back to my home.

GF Obviously. Housemate Chris for taking me in when I was homeless, Dad for not entirely giving up on me when I was ****ed up. Even Pervy Little brov. LOL

The Phoenicians, Romans and the Moors; those guys really knew how to build single track.

For my wife,
For the music,
For the fun of it all,
For just being here, still!
