Just like a lot of people this has been a hard financial year and as a family we’ve had to knuckle down a bit.
However, after being away from home for several months due to work, I’ve just gone to check on the kids to make sure they’re wrapped up and asleep and any difficulties have just melted away whilst looking at the peace on their faces. Truly soul satisfying.
I’m now sitting in front of the fire with a Ruddles to really cap off the night.
Thank you for your time.

LOL you know Gunz i have had many a years like that and
I know your feeling quiet chuffed at the moment the little
ones always seem to take the pressures away when you see them lying
there all content

Do you have long enough arms to do that or just one of those fantasies
of yours you obviously can’t achieve.

I love sitting down all cuddled up with my children watching a good christmassy type film , my stresses just seem to glide away and for a brief moment i feel like i’m a 10 yr old again sat with my dad without a care in the world.

Right now? Nothing.

Spending time with good, proper, friends.
Riding my bike

Throw yourself into the road, darling.

loud clear bass heavy beautifully syncopated breakbeat and a pleasantly uninhibiting tincture

Nothing.

Seeing my wife and daughter playing together and laughing. That’ll do me every time. But then I’m a soppy git at heart.

Riding it

That dried sweat and chalk residue scent left on your hands after a hard day climbing.
I look like Frank Booth, but significantly more peaceful, with my hands around my face for hours afterwards.

Yunki, I like that one, very lyrical.

Just thought – riding in a forest in the Summer just after rainfall listening to Aphex Twin’s Selected Ambient Works. What a smell, what tunes!

snuggled up on the sofa with the missus watching friday night TV with a glass of wine with the whole weekend together in front of us 🙂

any bike trail when i am in that ‘this is why’ zone..

the Missus in a tight black mini skirt… hubba hubba! 😉

a good Yoga session..

Listening to good music is bliss.
Having an awesome night out with mates.
Tea.

And this

any bike trail when i am in that ‘this is why’ zone..

good food.
good wine.
good company.
And a beautiful sunset

Tarmac as smooth as a babies arse, a tail wind and skinny tyres.

Just watched my daughter win her fist kick boxing tournament. Very satisfying.

Cuddling up to the girlfriend and drifting off to sleep after a good sh*g.

These two, plus riding my bike on flowing singletrack.

There’s something peaceful about cruising along on the sea with the wind in your kite and not so much white stuff that you have to concentrate hard. But It’s more of a relaxation and pleasure than satisfaction. I’ve not kitesurfed for nearly 3 years 🙁

A grand day on the hills

Flesh on flesh with a bit of silk

A well earned pint

This, and Radiohead’s “In Rainbows”

The love of a good woman.

A well played Telecaster.

Mountains.

And a damn good nehari:

Flesh on flesh with a bit of silk

That’s it! I’m getting the wife’s camisole out.

The nearest thing would be sunshine, clean rock, good friction and (successfully) pushing the grade.

And an ice cold beer or two at the end of the day…

Rainy Saturday afternoon in my favorite pub, pint to hand, reading the paper.

Dry, dusty day in the Alps going back up the hill in the cable car after a ripping run, admiring the view and reflecting on how great life can be.

A really satisfying s**t.

playing the music you love and having the audience love it too. Can’t beat that kind of endorphin

Today. The most exceptional day ever with my wife and two little girls – steam train ride with Santa giving out presents, hot chocolate in the station bar, friends round this afternoon, Sunday roast for dinner, log Stove burning away, girls now sleeping, wine out. A perfect day.

riding up alpine climbs in the heat when I feel fit enough to be on top of a decent gear

Ladies’ bottoms.

Flesh on flesh with a bit of silk

*fans face*

Sunsets

Oh and outback sunrises

fresh air

seeing my cat do his “tuck and roll”

laughing at my husband breaking wind (it’s still funny)

Being at Gatwick departure lounge awaiting call for flight to Geneva. Train’s better still.

Scenery, so many beautiful places but some give off magical vibes. 8)

Scenery

+1 🙂 Watched last weeks Charley Boorman thing and now I feel like I need to go to Calgary to experience those mountains in person. Looked amazing.

+1 for seeing your little monkey(s) nestled down asleep.

Coaching kids to get pretty damn good at something they love and then handing out awards (and getting a standing ovation from a collective group of parents).

Being ‘at one’ with the woods/fields/hills/mountains on foot or bike.

In the company of proper friends with some right good food and a tipple or two.

That made me feel good just reading it!
