Picking up a new magazine and sitting in the lounge in my trackie bottoms with a cup of rosie lee, telly off and nice and quiet.

Having a ride on my bike with no silly mistakes etc or not feeling like that was a close one.

Going to bed knowing i aint gotta get up and do anything next day, which doesnt happen often.

Pint of strongbow in the summer, standing outside the pub in the sunshine.

When i have done a job for a customer and i am as pleased with it as they are.

Running the eczema on my hands under hot water! The masochistic pleasure is sublime.

But I try not to do it often because it's really bad for me.

Another one.

Standing in front of my half finished wood fired pizza oven which is drying out with a charcoal fire inside, hot, raw heat pouring out warming me up and a pint of good home brew in hand cooling me down.

Sunset glowing, kids asleep and happy to be going to school tomorrow.

Sometimes I slip into a two decade time warp and have a cigar called Hamlet.

Aaah... braking too late and dropping it into second as I roll up to the lights just so I can hear that sound!

A spontaneous kiss from either of the kids whilst cuddling on the couch...

The smell of dust and grass after working in the garden...

Crispy Roast Chicken skin...

Waking up in the morning, stretching out and my arms not hitting wood.

Being alive is ace
