Question What is making you happy today?

[Rusty Shackleford]

Nice. What do you do?

I have always dreamed of working locally. I hate London but quite like London remuneration.

I'm working for the local electricity company - setting their rates. Mostly statistical and financial analysis. Always imagined I would have to move to Seattle or Portland to get a decent job but got lucky with this one. Pay is more than acceptable and cost of living in rural Oregon is very reasonable.

Oh I doubt its a genuine version. Probably some herbert with a T-shirt printer.

You can get a T shirt hand signed from Hooky here. I got one last year when I saw him at chinerys :smile:

Bit of afternoon loafing, I managed to secure a Joy Division and a Smiths T-shirt for MK Jnr :thumbsup: My wife will be so thrilled :hilarious:

I've never understood parents dressing kids in T shirts of bans they like.

I'd have grown up in Barry Manilow T shirts if this trend had been around when I was young.

Sounds like you dodged a bullet there.

I've got the Water Works. Fancy a trade?

And I'd have got Gilbert & Sullivan & The Black & White Minstrels :stunned: Fortunately I have exquisite taste that i am slyly imparting on my offspring, at least until she starts to listen to whatever boyband of the day rules the charts in a few years.

Blimey that would have been awful, my mum probably would have put me in a wham t-shirt!

No I need both to double the rent.

Jim Reeves would have been my fathers choice. I would have been murdered in the street.

It's a good day - broken phone sold for £26, CD collection sold for £70, and that Nirvana single sold for £258!

eBay? Oooo, what single? I sold a Swervedriver album for £108 and a Bark Psychosis (who?) album for £88. People looooove the vinyl at the moment.

I was offering it to you, in exchange for the entire orange set!

I'd have been quite cool: Mamas and Papas, Bob Dylan and The Eagles. (I actually stole those off my dad!)

Deal done good sir.

An orange vinyl of Sliver/Dive. Gone to America.

Hong Kong is human after all. After over 4 years I'm finally standing waiting for a train with severe service issues. It's actually making me smile

The sun is out...and I'm working from home.

Good weekend- started off however with us taking the in-laws to Gatwick at 1am - I stayed awake for some reason - but when we got back at 5 the sky was so clear, we sat outside with a glass of Chablis watching the sun come up. I didn't wake until 1pm on Saturday- but no rest for the wicked, we were invited to a dinner party with the Town Clerk, in the next village along. Nice dinner, spoiled somewhat by the other guest who blamed his situation on everything but himself (EU, the government, foreigners...). Both of us wanted to drink, so we walked the hour back in the dark which was fun. Sunday - our youngest was in the church choir (every month), so we went to that, which was good, (always good to get nice comments about your kids). Then, as it was a nice day, we went to Headcorn Aerodrome (which is only 5 mins away) to watch the planes (including a nice Tiger Moth) and see the museum.
