Simple pleasures 23:07 - Jun 28 with 4058 views | qprxtc | In this short existence. Given I live a land of plenty. I’m not oppressed nor am I impressed and can write shite and talk bollocks. Especially after a litre of Sherry: What makes your life bearable. Beyond , family, friends and all that. What goes on in your head. On your own. At 3.27 am. I can honestly say it’s about XTC. Not Rangers, love them that I do. I woke up the other night and could’ve sworn that Andy Partridge was shaving our dog. We don’t have a dog. My simple pleasure is getting to the end without being interrupted. | | | | |

Simple pleasures on 23:32 - Jun 28 with 3521 views | bosh67 | Waking up in the night and finding my cats asleep on the bed with me. Being able to afford to give a homeless person a meal or get them into a shelter. Breaking a Daim bar into lots of pieces, eating the chocolate off each piece and then crunching on the almond caramel bit in the middle. | |

Simple pleasures on 04:44 - Jun 29 with 3379 views | PlanetHonneywood | Thirsty, I can go to a tap and drink clean water as opposed to not having the option or, having to schlep miles for a drop or, only having dirty water to drink. It's dark, it's cold or hot, whereupon I can flick a switch and voila, it's not! Living where I do, I have truly fresh air to breath. Having lived/been in many places around the world where such things either don't exist or, are beyond many people, I stopped treating water, power, and air as my right years ago, and view them as luxuries I'm blessed to enjoy. | |

Simple pleasures on 08:54 - Jun 29 with 3271 views | MrSheen | Fresh milk. I know many people think the cruelty involved in animal husbandry makes it immoral, but for the rest of us…it requires a specially bred species, land managed for centuries to feed them, specialised buildings and machinery, and swift, hygienic refrigerated transportation so that the vast majority of people in this country have access to it in walking distance 24 hours a day, for the same price as sugary water. Lucky for us. | | | | Login to get fewer ads

Simple pleasures on 17:32 - Jun 29 with 3002 views | E17hoop | A good night's sleep. I can sleep anywhere but will regularly only get 5 or 6 hours when I'm stressed, busy, etc. When I'm in good health, mentally and physically a solid 10+ hours can make me feel amazing. | |

Simple pleasures on 12:25 - Jun 30 with 2690 views | BrianMcCarthy | A new love affair with a new piece of music. It's only noise, almost formulaic, so how is it that I can be floored so often by so many different tunes? I hope it never changes. | |

Simple pleasures on 13:28 - Jul 3 with 1657 views | hubble | A log fire crackling in the grate on a cold night. A cup of good coffee in the morning, made in a Moka pot on the stove. And as the Chef has said, hot buttered toast. Simple pleasures are the best. | |
