SO many trivial things make me happy - simple minds & all that!
* Fluffy towels on a radiator for after a shower
* When something is reduced at the till unexpectedly
* When I find money or lip gloss I'd forgotten about in a pocket/bag
I'll stop at 3. Don't wanna overdo it.
After much effort I single-handedly got my new mattress from the spare room where it has been uncurling and decompressing since it was delivered, in to my room and on to the bed. Needed a lie down after all that and oh my god, the comfort! Can’t wait for bedtime later 😂
Today's trivial thing to make me happy:
Watching David Beckham produce some sticky stuff! 😏
It's honey, you filthy feckers! No idea how to embed links properly but here he is!
Scrub up, then mass. Happy day folks 😉
was away for the weekend.. happy to be home now though.. no place like home
Going for a spin
When I was young (still young !!) the entire family would be packed into the car and driven somewhere every Sunday, usually rural Co.Clare. So a Sunday spin was a big thing
I bought my first car 3 years ago and never used it. First year 600km, second year 1000km and this year I decided it’s an old car and I’ll drive it until it fails!
Yes fuel is expensive and my sympathies to hard pressed commuters.
This weekend I drove a random 600km with no plan and no goals, just a long spin and cheap budget hotels overnight. It’s not Route 66 in the USA or something special but I had a super time :)
That it's Friday 🙌🙌🙌
New barber at my barbers… who happens to be excellent….probably my favourite cut since going there.
I used to have 4 years no claims bonus but I stopped driving for 5 years or so and then the NCB was lost, oh well. I had no need to drive in Dublin.
Got back driving in 2020 and my quote was surprisingly high! I paid up
Year 2 the quote was the same to the exact cent. Clearly no human looked at my file. It was generated by a computer and I got nothing for one years no claims.
Year 3 they put my rate up! Again I had no claims.
Found another well known insurer who offered to take €240 off the premium and gave superb customer service with email, phone calls and an invite to the office where I chatted to them. I signed on the dotted line!
Shop around 😊
not trivial at all ..
hugging my Dad.. (who's sick in hospital)
Wishing you and your Dad all the best sporina 💜
thank you - and your username is v apt; I literally adore the bones of him
After searching for hours, I finally found my hot weather leggins!!!!
The look on my ex colleagues face(he was shall we say, not embracing of the diversity in the building) in the uk office when I jokingly sent my friends there a photo of a tub of Lurpak 5oo g marked down to 1€ from a shop local to here.
Balmy summer evenings 🙂
Spent two hours rearranging and tidying before the furniture delivery tomorrow, place is immaculate. I think I’ve rediscovered 16 square feet of space now that I’m orderly, systemised and tidy…
Being in London over the weekend for a family christening and visiting the Tate Britain art Gallery. I had a great time.
After nearly two years, my rescue dog is now giving me the gooey eyes.
The snarly snappy biting dog is gone, now a soppy ould pet.

The frozen veg range in a well known chain supermarket, the floret type veg have small florets in their bags.
Which means its easier to eat in stews/curries etc.
Friday evening, work is done and the sun is shining!
My local Polish supermarket got back into stock my favorite banana yoghurt so I bought ten.
I'm going to have a very happy yoghurty heatwave.
The first mahasive poop after coming off antibiotics that cork the poop shoot.
....and home made pizza
Going for a walk on a sunny summer evening, listening to John Creedon on the radio.
Fantastic day at the cricket but absolutely wrecked having spent almost 8 hours in seriously warm weather, made the right decision to bring a cooler bag full of drinks therefore not having to traipse over to and Q at the shops in the heat… 🎟🫣🤤😋
I phoned my uncle earlier, he's just home after 3 months in hospital. He's so happy to be back in his own place, and trying to get back to his old routine.
(far from trivial)
Congrats!
Thank you!! Still hasn't sunk in yet 😂
And we weren't invited.
I'm off over to the TA thread!!!
Congrats! 🎉
