Little things in life that make you smile

Anything goes in The Snug, General Discussion's rebellious little brother. An off-topic den of iniquity where any subject not covered elsewhere may be discussed. Well, anything except golf, Star Wars and Arsenal.

For about thirty seconds just now, it was raining in our front garden but not in the back.

Congratulations DL.

I came on here to say I opened a new jar off coffee and it smells so good as you break the seal. But DL your pleasure is on a different level. :heart:

A free airshow from a group of planes in formation.

There is a crime in Singapore that I assume is their version of indecent exposure, which they call “Outrage of Modesty”. How very quaint.


On an entirely different subject, can anyone recommend a good Singaporean defense lawyer?

Sorry mate, Changi it is for you.


Still you'll not have to worry too much about exposing one's self. :newthumb:

Was just looking in a sports shop, in Chiavari, on hols, in northern Italy, on the coast, and was interested in the local teams top, which is a kind of Argentina* home kit, in colour and stripe, with this great devilish kind of badge...

Image

Anyway, it just so happens that I was wearing a WHU t-shirt, one of those striped numbers, with the crossed hammers insignia, that someone in the fam bought me as a present a while back.

Anyway, I must have been spotted through the window, because a pair of lads who I assume worked there, stepped into the window I was looking through and did the crossed hammers sign at me, with their arms

Would have made a perfect piccy.

:coolas:

[sidebar musings: I think I read somewhere that Italy and Argentina have lengthy historical roots, such that the cultural connection between sea-faring and other professions in the two places runs very deep]

The 'Little things that irritate you' thread. Makes me realise that sh*t things don't only happen to me.
