The thread on expressions that irritate you is going well. Now for expressions that make you happy & are nice to hear. I’ll begin & of the top of my head they would be ?

Daddima I knew that things would get better for me if I continued to " Look on the bright side of life " Please can you tell me where I send off my £50,000 cheque to to ensure that bloody cash van arrives at the correct address, promptly, and fully laden with cash. Even if it was meant for H1954 I am more deserving!
