    Ah yes indeedy jillyb1, the Roy Grace novels. I have just returned from Sainsbriz with three of his I haven't read, plus three Mark Billinghams! When it's two for £7 temptation is sparked. :smile: Happy driving! DD

    Getting Daisy onto the drive in one smooth and precise maneouvre. For once the hands, shoulders, neck, wrists, knees and ankles all co-operated and the Parking gods smiled upon me. Utter bliss. DD

    Julie, I'm painting a canal scene with boats at the moment, but it will take a while to finish. Here's some I did earlier. They're a bit dark because I photographed them on the wall behind glass, but click on the picture to make it bigger, and they look better.

    Happiness is waking on a Saturday thinking it's a Friday, then realising you can lay-in and don't have to go to work... Bliss!!!

    Ya think, tjt? :green :smile:

    I was ridiculously pleased, I freely admit it, because the ZX was a much bigger car and it was always done in one. Daisy is smaller, and therefore supposedly easier but I guess it's connected to the advance of the ghastly arthritis. I was, and remain, dead chuffed. :grin: DD

    You is a norty boy.

    A couple of candidates for happiness - starting a new bar of soap and breaking the foil on a jar of coffee. I had the pleasure of both today! DD

    PS How was the film, jilly? I hope you enjoyed it.

    The film was really good but nowhere near as good as the book ! It was very moving , a few tears shed , but not as involved as the book . Did enjoy going out with the girls and it gave my hubby some time alone too which is rare as he's my carer too . Happiness today is looking forward to the 4th visit this year from elderly auntie ; anyone who knows me will detect the sarcasm here ! Jillyb

    ...... reluctantly retracing my steps after I reached home and noticed that I had lost my little cardigan that I have had for years and love. There it was on a hedge, someone had picked it up and put it there. I am so happy to have it back.

    The happiest people don't have the best of everything. They just make the best of everything.

    If you can lay down at night knowing in your heart that you made someone's day just a little bit better, you know you had a good day.
