What's the most fun you've ever had...

Not sure I can remember having fun or feeling happy. Most peaceful moment ever would have been around 10 years old, sat on a swing in a playground at night time while it was snowing with no one or no noise around, that's how I'd like my last moment to be.

We do this faintly silly thing over spring and summer, or at least when the weather permits, where we visit a different Auckland volcano, maybe take some lunch with us and have a picnic. You'd think it would get boring but stand down Negative Nancy because it is so much fun.

Mid 20's three week trip around Europe. Everyday was something different and mostly every night was a booze up.

Also, the Mrs and I had a wonderful day walking a stretch of the Cleveland Way. Finished in Whitby just sipping a beer in the centre of town near the market. Just a really fun day.
 
All little things, really.

The birth of each of my children- always special, always different.
Going out shooting arrows on frosty mornings when my boy was small, and there was no-one about.
My kids telling me about their day, and me giving the time to listen.
The first time I climbed the rope in the gym when I was small in school.
Being at the far end of the garden, smoking, at midnight during covid quarantine- making myself dead still and silent. Moonlight silvery on the grass and trees, being able to hear the small animals in the grass. That's magic.

I was going to poke fununtil I realised this is the same as the 'munro bagging' poster hanging in my office so I am in no position to ridicule...

My memory is crap so I forget even the good stuff

Probably for me, had a cycling trip to North and South Uist, taking in Berneray, Benbecula and Eriskay with 4 mates. Had a crappy tent, then hired a hobbit hut. Lots of good food food and a proper laugh. We camped one night in South Uist and when I woke up at 5am, there was some random old Collie dog sitting by my tent. He sat there all morning with me while I made coffee and breakfast then proceeded to **** all over my mates tent.

Magic times. Sticks in my mind, simple times
