Three things you think are underrated.

[Nerdherder]

To balance out the "Three things you think are overrated" thing;

Mention three things you think are underrated.

1. Italian Wines. Just not the supermarket drivel as with any wine.
2. Traveling by train.
3. Taking relaxed walks (vs sporting activities).

Cold weather

Series 2 Escort RS turbo (far better handling car than any french hot hatch or VW Golf)

Anchovies

Peanut butter and Marmite on toast.

B roads.

The smell of freshly ploughed fields.

The British countryside.

Anchovies

I love anchovies.

I also love expensive running socks for everyday use. They cost about £12 a pair but are really comfy and last 10 times as long as regular socks.

I'm also a big fan of proper maps on paper. OS maps mainly but I love all sorts of maps. I like the way you can open the whole thing out and see relative distances and plan routes.

1. Herding Nerds, obviously.
2. The wonderful fresh English countryside smell of slurry being spread on the fields as you drive past in your topless car.
3. The Joy of Grandparenthood.

Agree with maps, as mentioned above
Not so sure about the smell of expensive running socks when worn for ten times longer than normal ones.

Quality goods.

Delayed gratification.

Common decency.

Not by me.

Still, not long until we get to live in that world.

Death.

[av185]

The perfect down change with heeling and toeing

The glorious sound of a GT3 flat six engine at 9k revs

The smell of a new car

Traveling by train is a good one.

Peace and quiet.

A well fitted suit.

Jess Phillips - the best Prime Minister this country will never have.

Internet radio - who doesn't want to listen to the Auckland Breakfast show when you go to bed

The Bundesliga- for a few quid more than Premier League ticket, you can fly to Dusseldorf, watch a match in Dortmund on terracing with decent lager and proper fans, great football, great atmosphere, sausage in a roll for from a stall for dinner, have a night in a Premier Inn type hotel, and fly back the next evening.

The first two tend to be mutually exclusive.

Although, as I point out below, each to their own (on the basis that sex is just like acting: no animals and no children).

Chirping of birds
Moments of silence
Tolerance
