    I'm happy today because...

    Stolen from another site but thought it'd be cool for people to add things that have made them happy today.

    Today I'm happy because I found out my friend who has been having great trouble conceiving, has passed the 3 month mark

    I'm also happy because I found the snowboarding jacket I wanted in the sale, and it's this season! YOINK, BOUGHT, HAPPY DAWN!

    What about you guys?

    I got to spend some quality time with my 5 since it came back from the bodyshop, I gave her a good coat of carnuba, and then started cleaning the dash and interior of bodyshop dust......

    Then stood back and admired how shiny it was and much I love my 5, it was a happy feeling.

    Re: I'm happy today because...

    It all depends on what way I go phil. I don't mind getting a rough one and abuse it with pod and ND or I go down the route like my old raider and try and get something very clean.

    Around 2- 2.5k

    Nice one Mart.

    I'm happy today because I've just spent 3 days back in my hometown seeing my friend who has returned from a long time away travelling the world. Saw some old friends and met some great new ones. Absolutely amazing weekend.

    I'm also happy as I saw a Smart car flashing a Ferrari out of the fast lane on the M4 earlier on - it actually made my day and I couldn't stop laughing, amazing!
