For Sadje’s What Do You See? photo prompt.

Harry’s such a happy chappy. In every situation, he finds something to smile about!
He knocked over his half-full glass the other day. Great, an excuse for another pint. When his girlfriend dumped him his first thought was how much money he’d save. He got the sack from his job. Was he deflated? No, he fancied a change anyway!
He can be irritating. If you are in need of sympathy, forget it. A slap on the back and a ‘cheer up mate’ is the best you can hope for.
We were at a friend’s funeral. As we sat, heads bowed listening to My Way, Harry suddenly joined in. ‘He did it his way, hahahaha!’
He has to go into hospital tomorrow. Says he’s excited about it. What’s not to like about spending all day in bed? He’s looking forward to getting grapes from his mates and being pampered by pretty nurses.
But we all know he’s putting on a brave face, the way he always does. He’ll keep smiling whatever he’s told, whatever happens. Hopefully, he’ll be okay, we all need a happy chappy in our lives.
