[Ming the Merciless]

I was just reading https://www.theguardian.com/books/2...vey-uk-population-paul-dolan-happy-ever-after which questions the expectations society places upon us (yes the bloke has a book out).

What makes you happy in your life and what makes you unhappy?

I like solitude whether on the bike or top of a mountain. It feels almost spiritual / in connection with everything around if that makes sense.

Having something that you have made work first time has to be one of the best highs ever. It's temporarily crushing when it doesn't.
