As an antidote to the hate thread. What do you love?

To name but a few:

I love good food and fine wine.
I love a cold beer on a hot day
I love the music that takes me back or makes the hairs stand on end
I love, as Kryton once said The "Inny & outy bits"
I love catching up with old friends and putting the world to rights
I love a good swim
I love gazing at the sky on a cloudless night
I love the sense of achievement when I complete something challenging
I love sound and smell of the sea
and I love, obviously, my wife and son

Any takers?

That feeling you get when you're home from work, finished all tasks at home, paid all the bills, and finally you can sit down, ignore the world and just relaaaaax. What a good feeling. I miss it.

Blimey, I've only felt that about once in the last 10 years...when I had finished everything on a Friday night and had Saturday morning and half the afternoon before leaving home to go on holiday.

Apart from that, my list is

Daughters
Wife
Home
Good food
Countryside
Anticipation
Travelling by train, on a favourite scenic route.
Going to see football at Stadfium MK (after years fo Plough Lane, Selhurst Park and National Hockey Stadium)
Seeing MK Dons win the league / a cup final

I know the feeling. I'm not a serious football supporter, but I do rather like Arsenal and we have had quite a disappointing season. Lets hope we can make a good comeback and return to winning ways.
