What Made You Happy Today?
Discussion
A longish (six miles) hot sunny walk along the coast today with the write and dog and a few beers ouside a pub in the sun.
Playing with a little puppy (mini version of our dog) while there. Sitting in the sun, with beers seeing two Astons, an immaculate TR8 aTriumph P5, Willy's Jeep, several nice 911s, a cool new Police Volvo XC70....and other cars pass by.
Just a nice carefree afternoon.

The dealer told me my new (to me) bike is ready for me to collect on Saturday 
9 years ago, getting a K1200R Sport made me happy... I ran it for one glorious summer before deciding over 160 brake in a bike was likely to see my licence disappear sooner rather than later 
Today: asked to take over karate training at last minute as sensei was ill, and even the tiny kids listened and did (well, they tried...)

Browsing the lounge and seeing a 9 year old topic brought back up for no particular reason.
Given some topical threads of late I wouldn't be so harsh for a good news thread. For me, having my other half ask me when Andy Warhol was born just after I had read an info poster giving the same info. I therfore said, with an air of nonchalance, 1928, I think 6 August, and proceeded to watch a visibly impressed partner read same said poster awaiting the inevitable.
That and going for a swim in the sea after a long hot day.

You are Lord Peter Whimsey and AICMFP. One for the kids there..
Yesterday I visited my friends company and his gorgeous PA told me how lovely it was to see me and I really must come down more often.
That was pleasant.

Today a Spitfire flew overhead. That noise always cheers me up.
Reminded me about a party we had just as the weather turned fine in September. The Bournemouth airshow was on and a Spitfire went over a few times. (I got quite excited about it at one point and then realised I was stood next to a friend so I apologised as he's German. )My son celebrated his self-titled, " Cancerversary ", marking five years since he left hospital.
That in itself made me very happy because he's still here. But I was even happier when I saw the rather splendid, hand drawn card given to him by one of his school friends.
It's the little things that make us take stock of the bigger things.
