that word is love."

In no particular order.....

Pizza, red wine and a film on DVD

Nothing beats Sunday night pizza and a good film

 

The smell of a baby's hair

A baby's purity is cleansing

 

Family

They'll always love you even when your behaviour should make them hate you.

 

Sci-Fi. Stop looking back; look forward as far as your mind can stretch

 

Winning an argument

Usually, you can't win an argument as people are so entrenched in their views - but just occasionally, if you debate passionately enough about a particular subject you can see the light dawning in their eyes and.... you've made a difference in the World. .

 

Losing an argument

I'd like to think I'm open-minded (but the older I get the harder it is to lay claim to that attribute). If someone can get me thinking about something in a way which challenges my preconceptions, that opens a previously closed pathway, that's got to be good.

 

The way some music and lyrics give me goosebumps

 

Waking up on Saturday morning and realising I don't have to go to work

 

The sight, sound and smell of a steam train

 

Seafood and a chilled bottle of Rosado at a Spanish beach restaurant

 

The thrill of going fast

Cars, planes, motorbikes, freefall. Everyone should try it.

 

More things I love...

There's lots more that I love. I've just not had the time to write it down yet but I will do soon....
