What made you smile today?

Also, the relief that child services weren't called after we took Nathan on a terrifying lift ride that sent you flying up and down! We honestly had no idea what the ride was (as it's inside). Looking at the building afterwards though.... We probably should have guessed 🤦🤷. Instant karma for me though as I hated the ride as much as Nathan!
Nathan will have soooo much cred in a few years when he can brag "yeah, I rode my first thrill ride when I was 3, so suck it, losers" lol. We've now decided to to Disneyland/SoCal instead of WDW next year, so I might have to pick your brains closer to the time. I can only imagine what your ride photo looks like :D

Absolutely hilarious! I'm clinging to my seat with my eyes scrunched closed and Nath is trying to reach for me! The best/worst part is that I hated it as much as he did (I love fast rides and rollercoasters but hate the vertical race up/free fall type) so I lost all maternal instinct. The poor kid was trying to lean into me for comfort but I was in survival mode and only thinking about myself and my impending death.
 
Watching a recording of Carole King, live in Hyde Park, performing her album 'Tapestry'. She is totally splendid at 74. I'm smiling.:happy:
Oh I saw this Candy and cried most of the way through :wasntme:. Tapestry is one of my favourite albums of all time. Have you seen Beautiful the musical? I don’t know if it’s still on but if you love Carole King you’ll love Beautiful.
 
I'm smiling today after my son mended my lawn mower. The man in the mower repair place locally drew in his breathe and said it would cost more to repair than the £60 I paid for it 8 years ago and proceeded to give me the price list for the ones he sells, starting at £95!
My son took it apart, found the belt had gone west and ordered a new one for £10! It took him an hour max to dismantle and put the machine back together.
Made his mummy happy :):)

Paul on the phone to Sky TV this afternoon , when our Sky+ box died . I went to the shed to fetch his spare box ( yes he has SkyTV in his shed, plus a kettle and fridge ! ) . He had to get onto all fours to swap the leads over , lady still on the other end , when he said " For Gods sake Nelly leave me alone , stop licking " . I snatched up the phone to explain that Nelly was a dog, but it didnt end there ! He couldnt get back up , so as often happens , I had to help haul him to his feet , whereupon he said " Sorry Kate , you know what my legs are like , I cant help it , I just cant perform like I used to " I wouldnt mind betting she had this call on speaker ! xx
