Things We Love

Bet this thread won't see much input! Anyway, here we go:

Secondhand bookshops - sadly in decline these days.
Tea from a bone china cup.
The sound of wind roaring iin the chimney, especially on a winter's evening.

Yupee! Another great thread. Thanks Atch.

Nice Earl Grey with lemon on a autumn/ winter afternoon

Nice Earl Grey with lemon for a round year

The smell of laundry fresh from the washing line.
In fact everything laundry related except ironing!

Of course but in autumn/winter it gets elevated to another level!


I think I hate folding the most and sorting. Ironing with a nice music or nice show and I can crack on. And it makes me feel like an adult :)

Fridays

@Atch, I was thinking about making such thread :))

Looking at and making art, art materials, interior design, fresh air, rain, spring, wind rustling the leafs of trees, trees blooming, birds singing, sitting by a bonfire and eating a still sizzling sausage, looking at starlit sky, stargazing, watching sunset and sunrise, the scent of hay and elderflower in the air, reading books in peace and quiet, eating ice cream in a park on a nice day, taking photos, snow sparkling in the light, holding and petting a puppy or a kitten, Christmas trees, sipping champagne and watching fireworks on New Year's Eve, sitting by the window and looking at the view when travelling by train, the sound the train is making (tuck-tuck--tuck-tuck--tuck-tuck) - that's from the top of my head :)


lol :)))

Lying in bed on a rainy morning knowing I don't have to get up and listening to the raindrops hitting the skylight.

Being alive.

That's a low standard that means everything.

Talking to kids. Really like the way they see the world.

Kids laughing - it always makes me smile :)

Stray cats squeaking and purring and being grateful that you've brought them a tin of tuna and some leftover meat.

Three fingers of Jack Danials honey bourbon, neat, before dinner.

Only a W.C.Fields type of drunk measures with their fingers. Do you have a big red nose as well? You critize me for having a few beers yet youre the booze hound. 😆

Oh no, no, no !
I only have an occasional social drink while your habit is daily.
Plus I don't come on the P.F. drunk to pick fights like you do.
See the difference.

Disgusting stuff, sure to have you well on your way to diabetes.

1) I loved cigarettes, but sadly can't smoke them anymore. In the beginning, it was unfiltered Lucky Strikes and Chesterfields. Then for the longest time - until I quit - Marlboro Reds. Nothing better than rolling out of your tent in the morning, pulling a cold can of beer from the cooler, taking an electrifying morning sip, chased by a mouthful of sweetly acid smoke. No coffee can compare.

2) Fishing. When I fish, I fish. Last time was a month ago when I rented a house at a lake upstate. I probably fished 16-18 hrs a day. It's like crack to me. After each fish I tell myself, "just one more"...

3) Women. All kinds of women.

4) Terminator and Terminator 2: Judgement Day.

5) Drinking alone. I hate drunk people, and cannot talk to them. I enjoy being drunk myself - very much.

6) Scuba diving. No cell phones, no emails, no one speaking, just the sound of the bubbles exiting your regulator. Plus fish, I love fish. I love to eat them, but I also love to look at them. Scuba is when I am most at peace.

7) Debating my family.

8) Being home alone.

9) Going to favorite museums alone.

10) Saunas

signs of a loner with no friends,a very dangerous thing for someone in NYC with all those lonely loonies.I hope dont possess any firearm

3) Women. All kinds of women.@Bobko:So you also mean Men who claim to be women or people/women like jon357???
No wonder you were throwing kisses at each other and being bummy chummy:).

Like I said Deepak, you are a useless and pathetic troll......try to find another avenue to explore your "talents",trolling is not one of them.....

Back to things we love:

Solitude.
Chocolate.
Singing.

@Paulina, I like your list :)) We have quite a lot in common!

throwing a shrimp on the barbie.

A non controlling woman that smiles a lot and often softly laughs out loud.

They only sell them in stores. They're called Barbies or something like that.

It seems that PF is full of malcontents, i.e. people dissatisfied and complaining about everything. Optimists are clearly missing.

For the same reason why reporters cover the earthquakes that happened and don't say anything about those that didn't.

I love LGBTQ+ pride month. I hate that I am not included as if I, a white hetero, had no reason to be proud. Maybe if I get AIDS...somehow...

BTW, if LGBTQ+ is all about diversity and inclusion I want an H in that string somewhere...Or N...

It's one of those 'I told you so' moments Alien. I predicted that interest would be limited. I'll come to the rescue:

Polish Easter. Here is a pic of my own table as I was laying it, couldn't get white eggs :(

3) Kind people
4) Good fathers
5) Good mothers

Come to Ireland.

This is nice.

I like to eat on my own as a treat but eating with people I like talking and laughter.

I love sitting outside on a warm sunny day with people around. It may be a bench at a playground or beer garden with people having fun.
