Little things in life that make you smile

An extract from my employer's published Strategic Plan:

"Our goal is to become a European Champion.

Our ambition as a European Champion, is to become an undisputed leader in Europe by combining four key criteria's."

With grammar like that I don't think we'll become European Champions any time soon.

Being asked by the shop steward at work as to whether I'd be interested in being nominated to be union equalities rep. I said I would, and was immediately seconded and thirded.

Even if I don't win the ballot, the fact someone thought I'd be worthy of it made me have a little feel good factor for a while.

I had to Google the name and then realised who she was....... Oh yes indeed!

Out of all the links I came across (no pun intended), one of them was titled: "10 minutes with Lily James".

More than enough time in my book.

A Sunday league pub team in Shropshire winning a £5 raffle for a pro player to play for them.
Turns out that Roberto Carlos will be making his debut for them soon.

Dan, check out Brian Lagerstrom on Youtube - his channel is excellent, has a good way about him and makes some cracking scoff.

Great for pizzas.

Milano salami, mozarella, pesto, basil, olive oil and a drizzle of balsamic. Was probably delicious, but I forgot I can't taste anything from this f*cking covid.

Every now and again I've been getting facetime calls on my Mac from an unknown number. I never use facetime so have no contacts saved on the Mac and just put it down to some spam call and never answered, on the 5th time I replied with a standard "who is this?" then the next two times wasn't so polite.

Found out today that I've been telling my 83 old man, who has been accidentally face timing me instead of calling my mobile to 'Go f*** yourself you helmet' :oops: Not once did he mention anything. :lol:
