It changes outlookes mate, most of my life I have chased money, fast cars, big houses. Now its peace and contentment, its all I look for, and 3 points. Can honestly say I am happy now, happier than ever before and it only took two divorces and a lot of crap to get here

Believe me, when I said you realise what you're missing, I wasn't referring to material possessions or money!
 
Had the huge sledge :p

I always preferred a Morris Minor bonnet when we could find one.
Sliding down Penshaw hill on one of those was exhilarating to say the least!

But being a mechanical engineer he made ****ing brilliant bogies. <ok>

Used to use an old pram with the wheels and leaf springs removed, fast as **** down Bunny Hill.

I remember going out on my sledge then me mam shouted us in for dinner, its called lunch now but it was dinner then.

Had my dinner, ran back out, got to the top of the bank then on me sledge. Some bastard had been out gritting, sledge stopped, I carried on, grit in both knees, back home crying, happy days
