The What makes you Happy Thread 2018 version

[Small pumpkin]

Finally got round to taking some photos of two old boats. There's many many photos of these two kicking around. Nearly everyone that comes to the island takes photos of them. I'm happy with my attempt.









( well they were good until I reduced the file size so I could post them here )

SPs photos. They are all good but I especially love the 3rd one with the weed hanging off it. Must resist pinching it still haven't hung up my boat pics

Not on this thread very often, as I am very happy with my life, but I do note that it looks like some Grapes are under the misapprehension that I don't like spending money, that is so wrong I do not mind spending money, I just don't like spending a lot
Why I am on tonight
Nothing of interest on tv tonight flicking through the different stations I came on the arts channel and Andre Rieu, now I could not tell you the name of any classical music but listening to the music was so pleasant as I am partially deaf I can't make out the words when folk are singing, but with music I can here the different sounds and tones

I think grapes are trying to tell me summin.

I have quite a few 'Like'(s) to 'feel free to ignore me'

Well least I can smile about it

Well, someone who doesn’t like to spend money posted me a lovely sized day lily tuber!!! I planted it in my back border as soon as it was received and didn’t expect to know whether it had made it until next year....but it’s already looking like it’s taken!!! So chuffed

My Granddaughter as gone "Horse Mad" but rather than jump in two footed had to explain it,s not all about sticking a saddle on and traipsing a field for a few, mucking out, grooming etc, getting up early in the cold horrible weather of winter, I have a dear old friend who as a "Livery" who let us on board this last few weekends!

Grooming, mucking out, bedding, walking, she's loved it!

OK, I know the NHS and local authorities generally come in for a load of stick but credit where credit's due:

Three cheers from me for Bristol City Council and the Bristol Royal Infirmary.
And three cheers from my mum for British Gas (yes, really!).
