I'm aware the separation of Room 101 from 1984 (a book I've never read) is criminal to some literature lovers, potentially....BUT. 101 is for us to moan about things to send there, Room 010 is for things we wish to revel in, enjoy and bestow a pleasant experience to.

This isn't a room to be a **** in. Because it's my wonderful idea as a more pleasant, upbeat thread (hahahahaha is that possible?) then as usual, I get final say on if your 'thing' goes into Room 010. Most will. I'm a positive guy.

I'll start, just a couple to get going.

The smell of petrol.
Bacon.
February, early morning golf in Dubai. Cool, sunny, bit of dampness in the air, quiet, few mates. Total heaven.
Bacon.
The V8 engine.
Bacon.

al dente

Sunsets on the ocean. Witty one liners.
The glugging sound of a pouring bottle.

Are you currently drunk, on a boat, watching a sunset with a comedian?

Great three.

ExpatAl

Has to be British style bacon with a meaty texture rather than the brittle American stuff (How can anyone like that is beyond me)

Charl01

Any airplane departing Saudi......even the bus ride from the Terminal to the apron

al dente

Interestingly enough, don't want to laugh through the sunset. Sunsets deserve reverence and a contemplative mood.

Got to disagree there. Streaky over back every time.

scrubbedexpat141

Agreed. Totally. In fact, streaky piss bacon should be in 101.

Do they?
I'd take a Sunset and.... .....combo any day.

Swimming in the Mediterranean.

Good call.

I'm throwing in - cold pint, hot day. First sip. Aaahh

Miss Ann Thrope

Meow (we need her to stay around if, in fact, she's gone)

Millhouse

Are we going to lock the door on Room 010 when we are done?

You DON'T sip beer, philistine, it's a big mouthful everytime.
