Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 
Not a happy post per se…

As some will know my son is half English and for his recent birthday I bought him a stadium tour of Wembley (already taken him around Anfailed as well as Old Trafford - my attempts at conversion therapy had so far failed) and we’re going this Saturday.

So I’ll be picking him up from Leicester then driving to the stadium for the tour which is about 2 hours. I’ll be bored out of my mind but yes he’s half English so he’ll have a good time which is the only reason I’ll be happy.

Afterwards we’ll be staying at a hotel in Luton for the night and driving back to the East Midlands Sunday midday, going to a funfair at his local park then at 5 I’ll be making my way back to Cardiff in the lovely Sunday evening traffic.

So as long as he’ll be happy, and I know he’ll love it, that’s this weekend sorted.

Nice but I'd make time to just be with each other. Why is it that these days you have to go all out to please. I'm sure he'd be happy with whatever you do as long as it's with you.

Huh? I do make time to just be with him but considering he lives in your area and I only get to see him one weekend per month I like to make our time as special as possible. None of his family is in to football so I like to take him places he would enjoy going to but wouldn’t normally have the opportunity.

Well done Jay colossal loss in such a short time.


I am not happy that today was the last time our local Wilko traded. However I made a special visit to the store as I plan to have our bedroom and hallway decorated later in the year. I bought 4 rolls wallpaper normally £19 and 3 rolls normally £14 oral tooth brush normally £16 and 6 solar lights £1.50 each. Wallpaper was reduced to £5.50 each roll, toothbrush £11.20, and solar lights 90p each. Just as I arrived at the check out the manager informed the check out lady the wallpaper had been reduced to 50p per roll. Total £20.10, saving £122.90. Bargain of the day? You bet :hyper:

I presume you mean lose 5 stone, not that you weigh 5 stone ?

Had an appointment today with my Doctor, I was able to discuss 3 problems that have been worrying me for some time. I wore a jacket I had not worn for some time, fiddling about in the pockets, I found £34, and later won £25 on the club bandit, altogether a very good day. :):):)

I am going to be a trustee for a charity I'm involved with, we just need the AGM so I and two other can be voted in.


I am doing all the admin and currently writing some procedures, and putting together an Induction pack for new members, and a form that requires member to get signed when that use new tool, regardless if they did that in a previous career.
