A happy thread.

After seeing the upsetting puppy throwing video I think we need a happy thread, after all we do have a relaxing thread.

Anyway I think some happy music is worthy of an opening post but feel free to post up anything that makes you happy!

I'm all about the colour recently, last friday I bought an "electric blue" jumper (not quite cookiemonster blue) and got to flirt with the very attractive sales assistant who said I had great taste.

Odd video, great song. I do love Fatboy Slim. Great monday morning music.

I like this one better.

If Noel Coward wrote An American Werewolf in Paris using Russian gangsters. 

And of course the uber cool Christopher Walken in the video for weapon of choice is worth a look.

Linky...

Apparently Walken enjoyed doing the video so much he refused to take payment for it.

Do I want to see this?

I prefer spending time with my dogs than other human beings.

No you don't want to see it. I like dogs a lot too, particularly dogs that are very domesticated and have taken on a lot of human behaviour. I am still in mourning for my dog of 12 years who died two months ago. People can't really replace a good dog.

There is a dog is a house I walk by on my way home from work. I see him almost every day and I'm full sure he is the best dog in the world. He is some sort of mongrel and I can't tell what types of dog are there. But he's very cute, it's big without being huge and he's got the nicest temprement I've seen in a dog in a while.

I am very tempted to steal him.

A dog might be nice for you Cookiemonster. Are you allowed to have one where you live? Cats can be good too and once they have learned to use a cat flap they aren't much trouble.

That looks like half a cat wearing a prosthetic.

I've got 2 dogs, very happy fellows they are too. Both 5 months old.

He's emerging out of the missing link in the 3 piggies thread.

Nope. One is from Limerick and the other from Wexford. About 2 weeks between them. They get on very well though...so far.

The prosthetic being a fridge magnet to help him stand up in the kitchen.

Well if in doubt.

Brilliant riadach.

Which means you could also attach him to a shopping trolley. But I can't think why..

Some may not know the use to which that impliment is put to Riadach

This thread is getting less happy for pets. Even as a woman I find that implement sinister Riadach. Happy it up there.

'm having the most wonderful day. Almost no work - for the first time in ages, out in the garden, seeing nice people, baking great cake, popping in and out from this place - mucky fingernails and all, Wexford strawberries and a gift of two oak trees from twin boys I've been teaching all year - grown themselves from acorns in their garden.

And now Guns 'n' roses are singing Paradise City on Today FM's 80s show and life can't get much better.

Ahhh.

I lived surrounded by acres and acres or lush green fields, bulging deep green forest, dark bubbling rivers all under a bright verdigris, yes, there is room for a few dogs.

And as for cats. I'm not their biggest fan. I don't hate them but I don't love them like I love dogs. That and I can't really play with cats because I'm highly allergic to them. (That said we have 5, 1 pet and 4 strays).

I'm getting married on Thursday!
