Reasons #11

Monday rolls round – and another week stretches out before us, ready for us to make our mark. Amazing how a little sunshine here in Berkshire can brighten the mood, here are my reasons to be cheerful this week.

• First BBQ of the year yesterday with lovely family and friends, steaks, salads and a couple of cold beers rounded the weekend off just nicely.
• Sharon Jones and the Dap-Kings release their new album today – I Learned the Hard Way, very excited to hear this, sounds reminiscent of the sould and funk sounds of the late 60’s and 70’s – James Brown, Ike and Tina Turner. Great stuff for spring sunshine.
• 50% exactly at clay shooting yesterday in Wokingham – I’m slowly getting better and learning my way into handling a shotgun.
• Aliens almost certainly exist – says Steven Hawking, but apparently we should stay well clear!
• It is international #boobquake day, to test if cleavage can cause earthquakes (seriously he really said it)… I am generally in favour of this.
• My new shed got delivered this morning! An Englishmans shed is his castle apparently, so I’m finally building my castle.

What are your reasons to be cheerful today?
