The last time I was there you'd have been about... 7 or 8.

I'd have been more surprised if you said that about Bury Park.

 Not sure. I do remember it wasn't exactly "state of the art" when I used to go there - had to go with the school, they used to hire out a big [green?] double-decker to get us there.
Personally I preferred the 1 on Putteridge Road. It was a bit more up-to-date, & tended to be a bit warmer too.

Re: The Happy Thought Thread - Part 2
it's weird, people who live in Clophill tend to deny that there is anything weird about the place... I like it, it's a bit spooky, but then aren't most churches / graveyards? I shall continue trying to read up on it.
speaking of swimming - I can't wait to go again, wish there was somewhere more appealing in Luton! I always had a fear of the deep end at Bath Road.
Though I feel quite calm in the lagoon  at the hotel we go to in Hurghada
- until I realise how deep in the water I actually am!? 
anyways, my happy thought of the day is.. only 8 weeks til holiday!

Putteridge Road? I think it's called the Putteridge Centre, at least it was the last time I went, but that's not saying much considering the time-frame. At least the building still looks similarly shaped to what I remember.

I must admit I did prefer the shallow end [actually I preferred to sneak into the kids pool next door if the teachers weren't looking, as it was warmer ], but the thing that really put me off was the diving board. I've never been a fan of heights - took 1 look at the top board & said "sod that!".  I remember I used the bouncy 1 once, though only when it was mounted at the side of the pool [as opposed to on the lowest fixed board, which I do recall seeing it mounted on at least once].

Re: The Happy Thought Thread - Part 2
Finding out that after chainsawing my way through mountains of red tape and hours of being kept on hold, the Inland Revenue have finally agreed to restart my claim for Working Tax Credits after they cancelled them back in Jabuary after they messed up my paperwork

Re: The Happy Thought Thread - Part 2
my happy thought for today is: the sun is shining, everything seems more manageable when the sun is shining! I am seeing a flat tonight, and have heard from friends it is lovely! so I will be deserting lufty (daddy) and branching out on my own!
My new motto is to find at least one positive thing in each day, no matter how bad the day has been

Re: The Happy Thought Thread - Part 2
To keep the job theme going I've had my first interview today which seemed to go quite well. Got another one next Wednesday and got an email today to say that I've been offered another interview in a couple of weeks so I'm just hoping something comes of one of them !!!
Well done Foreverwar, I hope some of your good luck rubs off over here
