Emily’s NEW positivity and being nice to each other thread

Hubby fixed the loose kitchen Faucet so it's not spinning when the water is turned on/off.
There are some benefits to marrying a chemical engineer who knows his way around pipes and plumbing.😳
Not sure where he picked up the contortionist skills to get to it in the first place. 🤔😊
It's the little things..

Those skills are getting more and more rare.
 
My dad always used to joke that Harriers were invented because Helicopters weren't killing enough pilots.
Those things could kill you just by the noise! I was used to F-16s flying overhead growing up, but once when I was visiting my grandparents a Harrier came over and nearly deafened me.
 
I'm a simple girl. I got to touch a Spitfire, once.
*Swoon*
My granddad flew Mosquitos, so I've always had a soft spot for them, but the Spitfire is legend.

(And I'm definitely not going to derail the conversation by mentioning a pilot - quite possibly Ben Miller or Alexander Armstrong - wiggling his eyebrows and saying, "Hello, want to touch my Spitfire?")

Typical British solution to a problem. Get every cabinet maker, piano maker, joiner, carpenter and daft old bugger with a saw in the country together in a shed, and six months later there's a plane that is one of the greatest ever built.

Practical minds make for practical solutions. Napoleon apparently derided the British as a nation of shopkeepers, but it mentality can be a huge asset.

On a whim, I dared venture into the world of @onehitwanda. Page one of my first adventure and I encounter this:

A young man was standing by my table, arms crossed over his slim chest, shifting left to right in his slim-cut black tee shirt, tight burgundy trousers and his bright and sparkly sneakers...

I smiled to myself. He was brave and had a slender figure. Perhaps a dancer?

I approved.

And then he turned as he heard my soft footfalls...

Reality shifted, and I realised with a shock that the young man was a girl. No, I corrected myself, a young woman. A tall, willowy, tomboyish young woman with a delightful pixie cut and the most remarkable amber-gold eyes...

Brilliant.
Mistress, I am yours, my imagination to do with what you will.
