Default Simple pleasures, for a simple man

It's 6:40 here in Scotland, at the moment, I am sitting at my laptop relaxing, reading things from this forum and I got to thinking.....what gives us real pleasure sometimes.

Right now, this weekend, my other half and my 3 year old son have gone off to stay with Nana tonight. I have had the whole evening to myself.

Initially I thought....wow, look at all this free time, I could get some really amazing work done.....then I thought....NAH!!!!

I am sitting here with 2 large beefburgers (no apolgies to the vegans and veggies here) in buns, washed down with some really cold beers!!! (My wife left me a vegetable curry in the fridge....NOOOOOOO), at ten past seven Dr Who is on, and I'll get to watch without interuptions or bath times getting in the way.

I plan also to sit down and watch it, whilst nursing a rather nice malt whisky (I am a member of the Scotch Malt Whisky Society)....and do you know what right now I can think of no better evening ahead......

As you can see I am easily pleased......

What other "simple" pleasures do others enjoy when they can?
