International Day of Happiness
Mar. 20th, 2013 11:57 amI learnt from ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
nakeisha that apparently the UN has decreed that the 20th March should be the International Day of Happiness
So I thought it was a good excuse to talk about 5 things that make me happy - if you feel like doing the same I'd love to see it.
1. A vid that always makes me smile and want to dance in my chair.
Starships by bironic - Starships are meant to fly. :-)
( Embed under here )
2. A series of cartoons that you may have seen in your local card shop - but you can see them on their blog for free.
Harold's Planet
( My most recent favourite... )
3. Doctor Who is back on the 30th March. :-) I can't wait to find out more of the mystery of Clara/Oswin.

4. Things are going well for my favourite railway - the GWSR. (Well, apart from getting me as a volunteer. ;-D)
The landslips on the line have been repaired, the available track is longer than ever and the work to rebuild the line to Broadway is continuing. I'm very much looking forward to the Gala for the Spring Bank Holiday weekend at the end of May, and the chance to see the 925 Cheltenham as close as she can get to her namesake school.
( One image from the opening day of the season. )
5. For my ebook reader, Calibre and even more, the Fanfiction Downloader Plug-in. It works with dozens of different archives, from AO3 and FF.net to smaller ones for individual fandoms, and the programmers are very good at listening to suggestions and including improvements. It's so much nicer to read long stories on my reader than on my desktop, and has kept me entertained through my daily bus journey.
