Happiness is ...

Lovely Young Dave (see previous post) asked me today what on earth makes someone want to drive a 30-year-old car with no effective heating or sound system.

I said, 'It makes me happy.'
'No heating or sound system and it makes you you happy? How does it make you happy?'
'It, or rather she, has a happy personality.'
'I guess I'll never understand.'

No, Dave, I guess not. It's like the Welsh idea of hwyl: if you have to ask, you'll never understand it.

Liz, thanks so much for your lovely comment about Martyn, made me smile. As for the LO, well.....I guess it'll go in the album with all the others, lol. I struggle hard to do these, let alone do anything else with them after, lol. Anyway, thanks for your comments, much appreciated. Beth XX
