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


Recommended Posts

... following on from my post last week regarding excellent service from the recycling men...


This morning my day was made by said recycling man knocking on the door, giving me a hug, and thanking me - I sent an email praising him to the recycling email on the Southwark website, it was passed to his boss, and he apparently got a bit pat on the back. Big time feel good factor :)

having a (not very bad) cold, but not having to drag yourself to work feeling rough...

cos you've got the day off... http://blogs.pomona.edu/grmt134-2009s/files/2009/03/antijapanesepropagandatakedayoff.gif

silence...


ref the google banner... though i was on the 'rage' thread for a moment there Brendan... don't tell me you like the horrid little packman banner... IMO it's just more of tacky invasive noise pollution!!!

It was actually an imbedded game. Who can?t love packman?


And if the oft used video game analogy is correct it is responsible for an entire generation people spending they youth sitting in dark rooms and eating pills.

no, don't want to have to tune off sound... 'cos I am probably playing last fm or spotify at the same time and dealing with work stuff. online research etc... gggrrr should be in the other thread!!!
.....relaxing at home with the radio playing in the background, the birds singing noisily outside, reading a good book, some lovely coffee and the anticipation of having more free time and going away to a wedding where I will be reunited with friends I haven't seen for a while. Yay!

    • Thought others may be interested to help a local community centre help others.    My bank account offers roundup and it’s been growing all year. As well as treating myself or putting it towards a train ticket to see my family I’ve made a donation to the Albrighton. They can use donations at any time but I hope my donation will go towards the Christmas hampers.    Can you support them so they can provide Christmas hampers?   https://www.justgiving.com/crowdfunding/albrightoncommunityfridge?utm_id=1&utm_term=M22JKQb6W   A donation of £50 will pay for a hamper to feed a family over this Christmas period. A donation of £30 will pay for a hamper to feed someone living on their own over the Christmas period.
    • I've never got Christmas pudding. The only times I've managed to make it vaguely acceptable to people is thus: Buy a really tiny one when it's remaindered in Tesco's. They confound carbon dating, so the yellow labelled stuff at 75% off on Boxing Day will keep you going for years. Chop it up and soak it in Stones Ginger Wine and left over Scotch. Mix it in with a decent vanilla ice cream. It's like a festive Rum 'n' Raisin. Or: Stick a couple in a demijohn of Aldi vodka and serve it to guests, accompanied by 'The Party's Over' by Johnny Mathis when people simply won't leave your flat.
    • Not miserable at all! I feel the same and also want to complain to the council but not sure who or where best to aim it at? I have flagged it with our local MP and one Southwark councillor previously but only verbally when discussing other things and didn’t get anywhere other than them agreeing it was very frustrating etc. but would love to do something on paper. I think they’ve been pretty much every night for the last couple of weeks and my cat is hating it! As am I !
    • That is also a Young's pub, like The Cherry Tree. However fantastic the menu looks, you might want to ask exactly who will cook the food on the day, and how. Also, if  there is Christmas pudding on the menu, you might want to ask how that will be cooked, and whether it will look and/or taste anything like the Christmas puddings you have had in the past.
