Topic: The small things in life that make you happy

[rob1966]

Joining the ranks of married people again. Got married last week after 7 1/2 years single. During that time had periods of industrial level dating every other night almost including skanks from 50 miles around and a couple of serious relationships, but finally settled on an awesome lady and we have just moved in together with her two kids as well for a new happy family.

Congratulations fella.  Are the kids into footy?

Was she the one you have posted about a year or so ago, or am I thinking of a different poster?

Congrats Andy. Wishing you all the happiness in the world.

Thanks mate. We have dated about 2 1/2 years on and off and just couldn't get it together, frankly mostly my fault of not being ready to commit 100% of everything to a new wife (after two shitty divorces).

My own daughter hates team sport but am really excited that my new step son and daughter and both into footie. I was his coach for one season which was awesome.

Really looking forward to the future.

I cut my hair especially my six foot fringe (feels like it was!) and it's not at all bad. Wished I'd done it weeks ago now.

Just found a Diary Milk in the cupboard 

Right at the back behind the beans - like it was trying to hide or something

Hopefully the chocolate hasn't acquired that off white patina that stuff well past it's best before has.

I've found hidden treasure only to be disappointed.

No - all good and now gone

Missus went for another scan this afternoon - now the cysts on her ovaries have disappeared too. The body is a weird thing, she's gone from chest pains, fluid in a lung, massive CA-125 level (cancer indicators and we were told she had cancer initially) and cysts to absolutely nothing wrong with her, all in 6 months.

She's going to totally piss you off by starting to get younger next, Robs...

Now if only she could be cured of being a Manc....

Excellent news Rob!

Hmmm. she does look young for her age.....

Nah, that one is terminal sadly. Although, in his best man speech, our kid did reveal she's not 100% Manc, as apparently she had some Scouse in her.

Middle lane hogging BMW getting hassled and then burnt off by a Reliant Robin

Fuck knows what engine was in the Robin, but it certainly wasn't what Reliant put in it.

BT Sport showed the European Cup tie from 1980/81 this morning, when Fergie rolled up at Anfield with Aberdeen and Bob sent him packing with a 4-0 hiding.

Not quite the same for me (married 30 years ago).

But happy for totally different reasons...

Discovering that putting a tiny bit of sugar and a drop of milk in lapsang souchong makes the perfect brew.

No wonder he hates us.

Gave him a lesson in European football that he failed to learn from

That special something something that you've been getting regularly since you started dating her?

Yeah, that stops cold around week 8. Then you count the days until your birthday.

Treasure these moments.

Yep.

I thought I was watching a Pink Floyd concert for a moment. 

Beautiful stuff in bizarre circumstances.

If you can't lift it in front of your fans, that's the way to do it.

Tonight getting trophy. Few weeks ago I drank til I passed out on couch

Tonight I drove to a friend's. Waited til I got home. Two beers to celebrate. Lying here buzzing and smiling as I prepare for sleep feeling so lucky.

Feeling grateful for this moment.

It's just nice and I don't have to get super duper drunk for it
