    I'm sitting in arrivals at Glasgow airport and its lovely to see people overjoyed at greeting family members and maybe grandchildren they haven't seen for years.
    Its certainly making me smile.

    A good soundsystem in a club, or a proper Hi-Fi at home.

    Good shout.

    Similarly, I love when there’s something on tv that makes full use of UHD and HDR so you get an amazing picture on it.

    From working my arse off in a sweat shop of a hospital with no air conditioning, to sitting by the pool in Italy, dipping my toes in as she sun beats down, all whilst sipping an ice cold pint of beer, sheer bliss ☀️

    When you bite into a pear when it’s just right. Not too hard, not too squishy but that state of perfect ripeness that only happens during a two or three day window.

    Drinking the last of the milk from my cereal straight from the bowl. Drives the missus nuts!

    The smell of bacon in the pan, and knowing its going on some fresh uncut bread or a crusty roll liberally spread with anchor butter.

    A perfectly ripe peach or nectarine. Not rock hard and not too squishy so there's brown bits and the juice goes absolutely everywhere, but just right.

    One of summer's most orgasmic food experiences IMO

    I went into the bookies last night to put a scorecast on the Hibs game. The lady behind the counter asked if she could see some ID. I'm 33.

    As ridiculous as it was, I'll take the compliment.

    Being up really early and watching the world come too, similar to PB and his mountain climbing. Being up sharp for tractor work and the roads being absolutely dead then seeing the traffic get busier and busier is oddly satisfying. Having a break at 10am knowing you’ve already been at the graft for 5 hours. Its weird but satisfying.

    A really good pint of Guinness. You rarely get one this side of the Irish Channel.
    Biddy Mulligans in the Grassmarket and The Abbotsford in Rose St are top quality. Not cheap at £4.70 but I'd rather pay that than a pound less for sour or tasteless stuff.
    The research continues......

    Talking of the Abbotsford I'll add another:

    Pubs that still serve cask beer using Aitken tall founts. The Abbotsford still has a few and it's so much better than the hand pull system if the bar and cellar staff know what they are doing. They used to be the norm in Scotland but are harder and harder to find.

    Boiling an egg to perfection, being soft and runny so it spreads nicely onto my toast soldiers.

    There is no such thing as too much yarn, just not enough time.

    Being diabetic and sorely missing the ‘sweeter things’ in life, I can’t describe the pleasure of a portion of 85% dark chocolate with a cup of really strong, good quality coffee before going to bed............. and no, doesn’t keep me awake all night.

    When one of my favourite films is on TV, even though I have the DVD.

    Discovering during first wipe that this particular sh**e doesn't require ANY wiping.

    That smell of Easter Road when I haven't been at a game in a while. The smell itself isn't very nice... but I always recognise it.

    The simplicity of kids/babies. Collected my daughter from nursery earlier and on the walk home she found her tongue. We were sticking our tongues out at each other and she thought it was the funniest thing ever 😀

    I got on the Eurostar train going to Paris last week and my seat was changed to Coach 18 Seat 75. Gave me a wee smile and it was a great seat as well...

    Similar to that, my old phone number at work ended in 6270.

    My son asked the same when he was about 3 or 4 (nearly 8 now), and I responded it was the hearts, pointed out the stadium and from that moment on, we always hold our breath when driving the western approach. Poor wee guy nearly fainted with the lights that are there the now 😂

    Its brilliant eh 😆 I never could tell them that it was just a wee pong wafting from Tynie, and it was mostly from the distillery and chemical factory, they still believe its Tynie 😆

    I bought a set of Hibs Russian dolls when I was pished in Prague many years ago. They're pretty ugly things that sat on a shelf untouched for more than a decade until my 19 month old daughter decided she wanted to have a shot of them a few weeks back.

    They are now absolutely her favourite thing. I've taught her their names, and I get a wee shiver of delight even just thinking about her wee voice saying the names "Gaz, Deek, Zibi, Boozy, and Ivan" when I ask her who they are.
