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

So after about 3 months of being busy, being sick or the weather being crap, got the mountain bike out on Saturday with the intention of getting dropped off up the top of the escarpment and bombing down, only to find out that after 3 months of sitting idle, the front and rear suspension had seized So it went in for a service today.

ALL FIXED! And he did it for free cause he's a top bloke!

Keen as for this weekend. Way past time to be getting back into it. Might do a few uphill rides during the week in prep.

Wa-hoooooo I've hit the lead in our work footy tipping competition, with only two weeks to go!
Not bad considering in the first week I got only two out of nine correct tips....

This was a couple days ago, but I thought I'd mention it.

I was at Good Games in Melbourne, because my brother was getting some stuff. I was looking through the Yugioh folders for some cards to support my Kuriboh cards and I found "Berserker Crush" in the $3 folder. So I picked it out and was about to pay for it.

However, just before, this guy comes up to me and says he found one in the $1 folder. I thanked him and he said he felt compelled to do it.

Nice to know there are people like him who are willing to help out someone save a couple dollars. It was a small thing but it restored a little hope in humanity for me. He was a nice guy.

Although I am pretty lucky in that with my job I get to travel anywhere from Helensburgh to Ulladulla. Some very pretty scenery along that strip of coast
