What makes you grin? Antidote to grumpy thread

I'm getting that warm feeling from having saved lots of money, plus getting my old Qashqai through another MoT. It didn't actually pass, but failed on a cv boot and a blocked washer jet. Garage quote to mend that was nearly 200quid and they wouldn't do it within the next fortnight. I managed to do it for £12.50 this afternoon. Fixing the washer jet actually took nearly as long as replacing the boot, I couldn't clear the jet by blowing through it, either manually or with an air line. I then had the idea of sucking instead which dislodged lots of gritty unmentionable sludge which ended up (briefly) in my mouth.

Just been for a face to face interview for Universal Credit.  The lad behind the screen was talking about payment dates and stuff.  I said does this mean I've been approved then?  Apparently it does, woohoo!

Brilliant news Eddie, slap up chippy tea when it lands in your bank :)
