Things That Gladden The Heart

My lad who is a class 1 Lorry driver, drove under a bridge yesterday morning early hours. Saw a guy climbing over a railing with a rope tied around said railings. Turned Lorry round at next roundabout and went back. Called the police and went up to guy, talked to him and give him a 16 stone bear hug to stop him jumping. Police came and all ended well. Don't know if he saved his life or not but made me and Missis T feel as proud as punch.
Good on him mate :thup:

Bit odd talking to him about it. I mentioned about the reaction to his actions. But then mentioned the reaction should said guy of carried out his actions which he had not really thought about. Odd thing is that daughter was covering that area re the police and she had "clocked off" ten minutes before he rang the police.

Sorry but I just don't like him. He was a great player not a great golfer. I have too many friends on the US PGA tour in the media and on the PGA itself who were sick to the back teeth of him and his totally me-first me-second and me-third attitude. Throw in the way he has treated fans, the example he has set on and off the course and that is my view.

But this is what a forum is about - the state your own opinions. I know a lot of people worship the ground he stands on. At my own club, we have a designated table for people who hate Tiger. Whenever the golf is on, the table is packed.

I put up a blind in our bedroom that is slightly too small for the window - but only by 2-3cms either side - and the next width is too wide and can't be cut down sufficiently. I was convinced my Mrs would moan - but she is fine with it...:)

Now that is something to be happy about 😂

A few things

1. My delightful daughter starting to walk and getting even cuter each day

2. This lovely weather - beautiful sun with a little breeze.

3. Woods not winning The Open

All good

Some people need to take a serious look at themselves and decide when they need to become an adult -

Since when is being happy that someone didn’t win something is anything to do with hatred and anger ffs

Get a grip really get a grip

Mrs SILH retires on Thursday...

My heart is indeed gladdened - though that is tinged with a good dollop of sorrow, as she would have gone back a couple of days a week doing the part of the job she really enjoys (helping and supporting women with a genetic-based increased likelihood of developing breast cancer) - were it not for her own breast cancer. She's in remission but - being a breast cancer nurse - she knows exactly what remission really means...
