It's contagious, and it's official (aka Tiny Little Things That Cause You Irrational Joy)

Recommended Posts

I, for one, have loved the 'Tiny Little Things That Cause You Irrational Rage' thread...

It's been a great place to get the irratations of life it 'off your chest' and onto the forum


However, as happiness is now officially contagious, shall we see if we can beat the negative with the positive?

new thread = Tiny Little Things That Cause You Irrational Joy

I will start with that first sip of tea in the morning... total bliss...


Now... I am waiting with fingers crossed, one down and only 315 posts to go...

And on from there Quids, the sound of your child's voice, and your voice, throughout your lives.

My boy is an adult, but when I pick up the'phone and hear the words "Hello Dad" the joy of the unconditional love I gave him as an infant is right there with me.

There might follow a conversation of numpty banality, Swiftian wit or something in between, but we always tell each other 'Love you' on parting.

[quote name='Bredan:-

Would it be in bad taste for me to mention Keira Knightley?s breasts at this point?]

But which ones were you referring to though?

Little white ball going in the correct direction


Waking up with huge hangover about 10am, panic its a weekday and you have overslept for work and realising with great relief its the weekend

Aw, thanks for the thanks about my "Tiny Little Things..." thread! I hereby return the favour.


Nothing beats waking up, turning over and looking at the clock and realising it's only ten past five and you can go back to sleep for another nearly two whole hours!


(Conversely there's not much more annoying than waking up half an hour before the alarm goes off. Not enough time to get back to sleep properly, but just long enough that you'll be yawning at your desk all day.)


I think you should change the title of the thread though - apparently you get more hits with a title that sounds like a Fall album!

    • Quicker than a car…crikey how fast do they go?   I have PTSD from a folding bike I had as a kid that snapped in half when I did a jump! I look at things like this and Bromptons and get the fear which is why I stick to sturdier bikes!
    • Earl…that isn’t misinformation it comes from the very report the 20% increase (in cycling stages) claim was taken from and regurgitated by many without actually checking the facts. Unless, of course, you are saying that TFL is spreading misinformation….;-)   Here are all the reports: https://tfl.gov.uk/corporate/publications-and-reports/travel-in-london-reports   Then scroll down to the Travel in London 2023 - Active Travel trends (pasted below to make it easy for you to find) and then you’ll find everything I have quoted from page 13…. https://content.tfl.gov.uk/travel-in-london-2023-active-travel-trends-acc.pdf   And I am actually shocked that, despite all the investment, that growth has been minimal…hardly the 10x growth Will Norman claimed was coming…..   Cycling made up 4.5 per cent of trips in London on an average day in 2022, up from 3.6 per cent in 2019.      
    • Because it's affordable and plenty of choice.   It's a changing and will continue to do so. As with most areas going through the gentrification process it will be all about the night time economy meaning a saturation of drinking holes and ' cool and vibrant ' licensed eateries. Brixton mark 2. I think Covid slowed down the pace of change in the next ' up and coming ' areas and has given many prospective ventures itchy feet and pause for thought because there's less footfall and disposable cash than there was pre covid. Brixton for example is much quieter and visibly down on numbers in both bars and eateries. Across London clubs and music venues are dropping like flies.
    • Looking for a heavy duty clothes rail, 5 or 6ft.  Please message if you are getting rid of one. Thanks.
