My team being thanked by several people after a particularly crappy, busy and stressful shift.

Myocardial infarctions have no place in my work place!

Having a lovely day off with Chris, getting some new clothes and finding more flats to go and look at later in the week.

Hearing your name on the radio.

I sent an e-mail to Lynn Parsons on Radio 2 this morning. She was asking people to tell her about their first gigs (mine was Ian Dury and the Music Students at the Caley Palais in Edinburgh in 1984). She read mine out on the show. Not exactly fame and fortune but I got my name on the Radio.

I'm going to be staying in most of the day, waiting for deliveries. I think I might see if I can get a mention on every show on Radio 2 today

Aww excellent

A few years ago, my Mum sent in a request and message for my Dad to the Paul O Grady radio show. Made his day when he heard it

I didn't bother in the end. I couldn't think of anything worthwhile to send to Chris Evans, then I was busy during most of Ken Bruce. I don't listen to Jeremy Vine as he's a tw@ and by the time Steve Wright came on, there wasn't much point :/

Rediscovering the simple pleasure of a corned beef and pickle sandwich.

Being really snug and toasty in bed and finding a cold bit of duvet with my toes.

I should get up really

When the indicator clicks in your car sync up with whatever music you're listening to. Rare but satisfying

^^ very satisfying!

This doesn't really fit in here, but I have to share and don't know where else to put it.

When you see things like this in the comments section on news stories:

23/2/2011 13:01------------Rich, Why would you compare homeless people with 'trolls' ? You come across as someone who has had a bad experience with homeless people. I give to the homeless constantly. and have once dated a homeless builder.

Made my day that.
