Question What is making you happy today?

[RHB]

We had a blank Christmas day on the guest front, daughter doing her partner's family in Birmingham this time round and my sister not due till tomorrow. So for the first time in 47 years we went out for dinner at Russell's restaurant in Great Baddow. Absolutely rammed for the whole time we were there. Enjoyed it, but prefer the lunacy of our family creating mayhem in our house! A bit skint now as well. Great setting for Xmas though.

£22.50p's worth of Salmon fillets for £6.75, & £10.50p's worth of Melton Mowbray pork pies for £1.05p, both from Morrison;s in Hadleigh.
Happy days!.

My wife would like the salmon I'd certainly kill for a decent MM pork pie (and we've just had a good lunch at our local restaurant).Wanna come round for tea?

Turkey Gratin. If you're a lover of turkey, leeks, onions, brussels and potatoes, then this is a Xmas left overs meal for you. I cooked it tonight and when topped with crumbled stilton cheese is was the nuts.

Went to pay congestion charge and it was free! A little win for me.

Our binmen. Tough old job. Super efficient. All the Christmas waste about twice the normal amount gone before 8.

And ours yesterday, save service. The contract is up for renewal so maybe they're bearing that in mind.

I think I read somewhere could be wrong that Veolia don't want to do it anymore

Bit formal isn't he.

I mean, what's wrong with 'To my old mucker Ricey, hope you and the family enjoy this bad boy'

'Stay lucky, Tommy.

Had to try an upstage TC just because he only gave him a slice and not a full cake.

I drive past one on the way to work called Jack the Chipper. Always makes me laugh.

I have to sort out some banking details for a relative who died and am waiting for the branch to open.

I am first in the queue in front of several pensioners who undoubtedly could have made the trip on a non work day.

Youngest grand daughter got a present called I think a Crystal flyer. Basically it's a fairy that spins and hovers and you control with your hand. The spinning produces an airflow which you use to control her without touching her. Well she left it round our house and old granddad is having a whale of a time

That's the one. She's currently being charged. I think I tired her out.
