I need to share my joy! (aka the Happy Thread)

Finally splurged just a little and bought myself something I've wanted since about 2005 when I first saw them on the net.

Now just waiting for the parcel to arrive. I'm not known for patience in such instances.

:D:D:D

Watched on the TV news today where a man had spent 3 days in an upturned boat at the bottom of the sea bed. Yes 3 days! A salvage team went to retrieve the tug boat and to their surprise found the man standing chest high in water. Lucky for him there was a pocket of trapped air, but I can't imagine what would be going through his mind in those 3 days. What a remarkable story of survival (& rescue).

Yeah I caught that headline this morning too, how bloody hectic is that huh? - Indeed, how would you entertain your mind in such a situation eh? :eek:

Happy bday Golden Phoenix. Enjoy the day!

Btw, every time my young nephew sees your avatar picture, he says that he wants to eat you. I tell him that GP is probably some big dude who probably could eat him in one big gulp! He just giggles. :D

Waiting for the parcel is doing me in and they don't seem to deliver on Saturdays? Why not?
It took a day to get from Auckland to Sydney, and I think its STILL IN SYDNEY! How long does it take to put a box on a truck and drive from Sydney to Wollongong?

Still very excited that the parcel is coming though : )

Thanks mate. (sorry for the late reply, only just saw the post)

The sandwich is supposed to dance, but the forums systems wont display the gif properly.

Awesome day. Spent the morning at the beach with with the wife before knocking over some Christmas shopping. Had a nice lunch and spent the travel time inbetween destinations listening to Australia thrash the Poms in the cricket.

Life is good. :)
