Scantily dressed young men in yellow and green on the pitch every other Saturday from August to May.
The smell of turf at Carrow Road on a crisp Autumn afternoon.
Gorleston beach and an over active dog in the early morning.
Sounds of the Sixties on Radio 2 from 8 to 10 each Saturday.
Somerleyton station, waiting for the 12.00 to Norwich on match day, (rarer now we are Premier League).
Bonds Wool Department.

When I was at school a classmate's dad was stationmaster (that dates me) at Somerleyton.One day he nicked the postman's moped and rode across the marsh scattering the mail from his bag.On another occasion he nicked a Matthe's bread van from Gorleston,loaded with bread,he abandoned it in a back lane at Herringfleet. We named it "The Crazy world of Arthur Thorpe" after a record of the time.Eventually he went to borstal for firing hayricks....kids today!
 
Been giving this a little more thought, beyond scantily clad young women on a hot summer's day, as nice and as pleasing as that is :grin:

A list of what made me cheered me up in the UK

Walking past someone's home and hearing Pink Floyd blasting out through the windows.
Watching NCFC live (That may never happen again <cry>)
Parsnips (Can't get them here <cry>)
Fishing or walking on the Grand Union Canal

Now I am here

Watching NCFC winning, on a live stream
A day where the temperature drops below 25C
My two lovely dogs
Leo beer, and lots of it
and the daily pleasure of a mostly leisurely lifestyle <ok>
