I vividly remember finding my son, who was about two years old at the time, in his bedroom with the talcum powder bottle he'd nicked from the bathroom. He'd discovered that banging it on the floor caused big puffs of powder to spurt out the top of the bottle.
You can imagine my face when I walked into his bedroom, finding this two year old with the biggest smile on his face and the whole room covered in talcum powder. I had to go downstairs to hide my laughter and told his mum to go up and give him a telling off, because I was incapable of doing so.
FWIW, she couldn't manage it either.

"It's not as bad as **** though is it, daddy?" was her unexpected reply.
Another one was when no-one was looking, my son put half a bottle of bubble bath in the jacuzzi of a holiday cottage we were renting....!

I know this isn’t what most folk would say but my job, I absolutely love what I do and I feel very lucky to do it for a living. Run my own business doing something I’m passionate about, I’ve absolutely no complaints.

I run into work on a Wednesday and Thursday and rather than just taking the most direct route I've started taking wee detours to try and always keep a bit of water or greenery in site.
It's just such a nice way to start the day and I still get a thrill when I see birds, foxes, deer etc just going about their business. I'm out and about by about 6.20 so it's quiet and on days like today you can see and feel the cloud cover breaking.PM Awards General Poster of The Year 2015, 2016, 2017.

The issue I keep coming back to is that it would be seasonal and with a young family I'm just not brave enough to walk away from a decent guaranteed wage every month, particularly as my wife only works part time. I'm increasingly thinking of taking it on as a 'side hustle' (I hate that phrase) to see how viable it is but that's still a big step.
I don't hate my job but the thought of doing it for the next 25 years isn't all that appealing.PM Awards General Poster of The Year 2015, 2016, 2017. Probably robbed in other years

I love what I do, enjoy the vast majority of the various elements of it, and get a lot of personal value from it.
the challenges I have are that where I work have moved the goal posts so many times it’s unreal (although I have a verbal offer from another organisation), and also that I don’t really want to move up the chain so to speak. I love what I do, I really enjoy helping others in their journey in the same space, but I don’t think I want to give much of that up to become a manager, although it seems it’s just expected that you will.

I run my own pet care business specialising in cats and cat behaviour, it started off as a “side hustle” (also hate that term, annoying) but I gave up my 9-5 about a year ago when we really blew up and it’s been the best decision I’ve ever made tbh. So much happier, I get paid to meet folks pets pretty much, much less stressful

Early dog walk down Musselburgh lagoons on a day like this, bit of a haar, sun just breaking through, peaceful, calm and still.

Wednesdays, my only day off, had no holidays for nearly three years so Wednesday is a day that gives me great pleasure. On the bowling green at 09.39 today, now in Corstorphine enjoying a couple of cold ones before heading home ready to go out tonight for dinner with the wife, a typical Wednesday and just about keeps me sane!

You don't need to know anything about what is going on but it's impossible not to smile, if not laugh yourself.

I'm on my own with both kids 3 nights a week and I love putting my daughter to bed then about 10 minutes later you hear the feet coming through, she'll appear at the door, I'll do the 'get back to bed' and I'll get 'but I just want to snuggle with you' before she comes over, climbs on the couch next to me and cuddles in before dozing off and I carry her to bed. Like I said I always say 'go back to bed' but secretly I'm delighted when she comes through and dread the day she tells me she's too old.PM Awards General Poster of The Year 2015, 2016, 2017.

I absolutely love BBQ's.
Doing them, eating them, the weather and everything associated with them.
I even like cleaning my BBQ."...when Hibs won the Scottish Cup final and that celebration, Sunshine on Leith? I don’t think there’s a better football celebration ever in the game.”
