So all you lot are happy then?
Noticed a little feature on Yahoo this morning about the World's Happiest Countries 
How they work out these things, gawd knows, but...... look.....look.... who's at number 5....
The World's Happiest Countries:
1. Norway
2. Denmark
3. Sweden
4. Australia
5. New Zealand
6. Canada
7. Finland
8. The Netherlands
9. Switzerland
10. Ireland
Full article is here if anyone is interested

I see that there are no countries in Asia whatsoever, so we are obviously a miserable lot. Not me of course

I'm sure I remember reading somewhere that Finland had a high suicide rate, but there it is at no 7 in the charts

Though I think I remember reading that South Korea is way ahead on the suidide stakes, perhaps this has a knock on effect in Asia?

We're too busy being happy in Malaysia to be taking part in these daft surveys.
