A sense of contentment

A petrol chainsaw

One decent pair of shoes

A vintage watch

The ability to cook well

[Gargamel]

A Jaguar

[louiebaby]

A drawer in the utility room with "odds and sods" in it like batteries, meter cabinet keys, hex keys, screwdrivers for glasses and so on.

Tweed jacket.

An old t-shirt that harks back to your younger, stupider days to wear on school events like parents evening to embarrass your children.

[MRobbins1987]

Buy a bride.

[Fartgalen]

I seem to be doing OK then apart from no Jag, drain rods or golf clubs.
I have no desire to acquire the golf clubs.

[Iva Barchetta]

I have almost none of the items mentioned so far...

I must be doing it wrong.


One nomination.....a convertible car.

Buy an MX bike instead - removes any desire to acquire (or join) a golf club

[GAjon]

Pressed Levi's and sensible shoes.

[DavidJG]

MX-5 / S2000 / Boxster to deal with mid-life crisis?

I bought an electric razor just because he had a nose hair trimmer on yesterday. Sadly things change as you get older it used to be Playstations, BB guns and late nights. Now I'm buying a bloody nose hair trimmer and a pipe !!
