Simple Pleasure of the Day - 80

Nice one Bez. Always great when your kids do good.

Looking forward to the flight, Rob? 

I'm trying not to let it get to me mate!

One from Saturday....

Bez junior passed his basic training to be a firefighter for Herts Fire & Rescue.

This represents a 13 year journey for Joe, he first applied while still at school.

The last 4 months have been pretty tough with 12 hour days and then working in the evenings to pass tests.

Proud doesn't begin to cover it.

Pics from the passing out parade / event here for those who haven't already been subjected to them on Facebook:

That's great. We all owe a debt of gratitude to those that opt to pursue a career in the emergency services.

My daughter, Alicia is 13 today 😊.

I can remember when you posted pics when she was born, Rob! That really brings home how quickly the time is going.

Yes mate, it's frightening really!

Having the old trotters serviced before our holiday. Or put another way, a home visit from the chiropodist.

Painted toenails will look nice on the beach Rob.

The boy's had the sign off on the Downloadable content for the Farming Simulator game.
Can I please exhort you all to go out and but a copy of the game - if you don't already have it - and download the cheapish add-on, as the bot gets a cut of any profits made and it's the only way I can see of him ever getting any income which could make him leave home...

I don't want to appear mean-spirited - I'm not that guy, you know that. I won't say what happened because it involves someone else's misfortune, and it's a bit indiscreet. But YESSSSSSS! GET IN!!!!


Best Friday feeling for a long time.

Just picked up a nice s/h pair of TDL RTL3 floorstander speakers for just £100 off eBay. 220 mile round trip to collect but look in good condition. Hopefully they'll suit the new, larger room for my classic vinyl nights down the pub. Can't wait to give them a blast tomorrow - should be right trouser flappers when cranked up

Nice....my first floorstanders were TDL2. I've never had anything as good since...

GDPR day.

Now instead of clients phoning in a blind panic for the last two weeks, they will be phoning in a blind panic for the next few weeks

Ireland seemingly deciding at last that it wants to be a modern society. Women will no longer have to travel to the UK or elsewhere when dealing with the traumatic situation of an unwanted pregnancy.

Yes, good to see the Catholic medievalism of my motherland continue to be eroded.  Long may it continue.

Well said Matt! Shame t-n-m-s doesn't have a like function!
