the unpleasantness
Hey........I didn't make any cockophobic remarks 
If you want to drink whiskey in the company of ladies with large adam's apples, then that's up to you mate ...... I'm not going to knock it.
Whatever works for you fella

Driving my van fully packed up for a trip away.
Good book.
Holiday cigarettes.
Watching my Mrs jump up and down on the spot screaming (very rare event) when we have an argument then forgetting about it and having a cup of Earl Grey.
Putting up a difficult piece of wallpaper and smoothing it down seeing its spot on whilst listening to Radio 4.So simple so nice.

Marin, it always tastes better if you've caught/shot it yourself and cooked it fresh! Fish and game, nomnomnomnomnom!

You're so right, my huntin' days are over now I've left Scotland. Still like bashing fish over the head though!

The smell from a tin of Illy, just as it's opened....Fssssss....Ahhhhh

The first gin and tonic on the flight on the way to your holiday. That means the stress is over. you've cleared all the hurdles, the bag is packed, ticket and passport found, breakneck-speed drive to the airport and sprint through the departure lounge completed in the nick of time, and you can relax. At least until your "Bastard! Forgot the earphones for my iPod" moment...

StefMcDef, surely the first G&T is had in the lounge at the airport? (Although, by preference, I take a Virgin Mary before a long haul flight, before being assaulted with champagne!)

Feeling absolutely knackered on the bike (today), then heading for home and realising the wind is now behind you all the way.
The facial expression of a dog having a dump
Finding a bling bike part you forgot about in a drawer
The second run on a skiing/boarding holiday
A bargain of any description
Finding something decent to watch on tv
Lager and a hot chilli/curry

I travel steerage, Cap'n - if I'm being assaulted with champagne on a flight or travelling long haul, then amid all the pre-flight panic I've picked up someone else's passport and boarding card.

The smell of my daughter/wife's hair after a good long walk in the cold autumn air.
The look of sheer joy on my daughters face when she runs into our bedroom in the morning.
The feeling of pride I get when people really enjoy my food.
The smell of freshly cut spruce.
Scoring a belter of a goal.
The feeling of comfort and familiarity when you walk back into your home after returning from holiday.
The sound of bagpipes.
Sausages.
Markets, the sights, sounds and smells.

Watching Leyton Orient win, not something I get to see very often though

Silence in the countryside (the sort that is actually full of sound, but all of it sourced live from natures imagination).
The smell of cold frosty air in the wind at the top of a hill.
The smile my 9 week old daughter has been perfecting for the last few weeks (and no, it isn't bl00dy wind! That look is different, and just as cute).
My wife.
Barbecued food.
A bottle of a decent red on a cooling evening with some open fire nearby, even if it is just the remains of the barbeque.
The kids in my class saying thank you after a good day in school.
The kind of tired only a long days effort can produce.
The fact that this list could go on for ages and ages...

The climb up and the ride down (on or off road, even if sometimes I can't ride it)
The view from the top.
Learning something new.
Good beer.
Watching awesome bands in tiny pub back rooms.
Everything that squeezes under the banner of 'Punk rock', the louder the better.

Oh and a good cup of coffee...mug mug mug!

having one of those perfect days with the wife and kids, ending with them tired but happy and going to bed nicely!
That feeling of being the first one down a fresh powder run - steep, wide and it's all yours as you build up speed and do a huuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuge carved first turn. Oh, just fabulous.
Cresting a really tough, steep and narrow bit of singletrack just at the point where you think you can't posibly do it, and finding a wonderful flowy, jumpy, out-of-the-saddle-pedally bit of trail.
Being somewhere together with old friends (whom all have kids now too) and sharing a few drinks, a stolen marlboro light and just having a totally unpretentious good time. Just brilliant.
Great thread!

finishing a night shift in the depths of winter when it's persisting down with rain and dark and cold and climbing into a nice cosy bed while everybody else in the street is climbing into their cars and trudging off through the rush hour to start their day at work.
