Things That Gladden The Heart

Philip Green being named and shamed today. I heard it was him a few days ago as did most of the national press.
 
Watching my 8 year old lad compete in the Bambinos Go Karting series and winning his 2 races today on same track his idol Lewis Hamilton won on as a kid..
Little fella came off track and said " did I do good dad"

Queue dad saying yes mate you did amazing as he walks off with a lump in his throat pretending he has something in his eye....
 
As I drive along the M25 slowing down to 20mph as sign indicating workforce on the road - cars continue to fly past at 40-60 mph - and I know that because it is a smart motorway they will get done. Also good to know that smart motorway cameras are 'always on' and traffic is monitored for such as tailgating and dangerous driving - as well as speeding. And offenders are prosecuted.
 
Reading a friend's blog. She is 9 months into being diagnosed with metastasised breast cancer - first diagnosis was almost 2 years ago. The secondaries in her spine, neck, liver, head and hip are shrinking. Her white cell count is now high enough for her to shorten the gaps between chemo.

Its not a war that can be won but she's pushing back the time that it will be lost. And more importantly, she and her friends continue to fill every day with good, bucket list experiences.

Now that puts things into perspective ! thinking of you and anyone in that situation .
 
My quarterly prostate cancer appointment with my consultant showed that my PSA had dropped to 5.9 and he decided not to take any biopsy's that he previously had said he would do prior to Christmas this year. He has also said he'd leave me for a year before another appointment as clearly my cancer was under control 😁😁

Good news. Really chuffed for you
 
Just spent thirty minutes watching two bats on the wing flying around the back garden and now the hedgehog that's been coming for a few weeks has arrived and munching the food (proper hedgehog food from garden centre) and is stuffing his face and wandering the flower beds looking for slugs. We're a new (ish) house on a modern estate and so good to see wildlife out and about
Rock and roll
