Is Tonbridge H A P P Y????

So is Tonbridge a happy town? There's a debate going on at the moment in government circles about whether or not happiness can be measured. So what do you all think? I sometimes feel like a grumpy old git and do my fair share of moaning (often on this blog as you may have noticed!) but I wouldn't say that I'm unhappy. In fact, deep down, I'd say that I'm very happy the majority of the time. But I couldn't be sure about it as my mood changes from one day to the next. If everyone is the same what use would a survey be? Lots of comedians and people who, on the surface, seem bubbly and fun to be with end up being the depressed ones, even sometimes suicidal ones. Shouldn't we all just get on with our lives or is there anything in this assessing happiness lark?...

Its a bit like Hilter asking Himmler to carry out a survey of the inamates of a concentration camp.

Someone is clearly having a laugh at our expense and its not funny.

Judging by the sheer number of brand new Audis driving around town at the mo. I'd say there's more than enough happy chappys about.

sometimes happy sometimes sad, thats the way life is! Nothing to do with this at all but I just wanted to ask Tonbridge folk if anyone knows what happened to Malcolm, one of Tonbridges characters who walked around talking to himself, he had a drink problem and could sometimes be seen lying on the ground, for all that he seemed like a likeable sort and I've been worried that I have not seen him for a while, dark haired fellah with a tash and glasses, probably 30's, any news anyone?
