    Question 'PurePleasure' your definition

    I am hoping this is the right place to post this, if not I do apologise in advance.
    I do not seem to be able to access Poll and Questionnaire from my side.


    I think for me it has to have the element of writing, laughter, discovering new things, completion of an idea with a team of people which allows us to know each other and ourselves at the same time.
    all together that for me is pure pleasure.

    For me, it is the moment when a group of singers and musicians blend with perfect, pitch, harmony, timing, and emotion as if they are one voice. Pure bliss!

    "PurePleasure" A cup of tea and a good book and no one bothering me.
    In a tree by the brook, there's a songbird that sings.
    Sometimes all our thoughts are misgiven.

    To me it's when I'm with my spousal unit -- those times when the stars align and the fireworks go off. I can't really think of a better example of pure pleasure. Sure beats a cup of tea and a book, anyway.

    The sand of the desert is sodden red, -
    Red with the wreck of a square that broke; -
    The Gatling's jammed and the colonel dead,
    And the regiment blind with dust and smoke.
    The river of death has brimmed his banks,
    And England's far, and Honour a name,
    But the voice of schoolboy rallies the ranks,
    "Play up! play up! and play the game!"

    Peeing after you've held it for several hours (and you stupidly drank four cups of coffee in the morning). Pure pleasure.

    A cold pint on a hot afternoon.

    (xO will respond that civilised gentlemen prefer beer at room temperature. I'm not a gentleman, I'm only half civilised, and I want that first swallow of bitter to freeze my throat.)

    Not being a gentleman, or even a man at that, I have to say--room temperature beer is quite disgusting.

    although not a beer drinker, I can definetely appreciate the coldness of it as oppose to a room temperature glass of lush rioja.

    I don't know that I would take advise on how to be a civilised gentleman from an Australian

    (For what it's worth, I feel bad ragging him while he's not actually on the thread)
