Lovely view. I've caught a quite a few ferries from there, stunning part of the world. That view must have a calming influence at the end of a hard days work.
Getting all three of my boys together at the same time for a match and/or beer [all too rare an occasion]

Hearing my kids say the words "thank you" when they get something.

Going to B & Q and getting the right bits on the first and only visit. 
That's not a small pleasure, it's one of the greatest pleasures.
The anticipation of the first home game of the season as I trundle down South Africa Rd.
