10 smiles of The week

▼ you’re The best

Thursday is National Compliment Day so we would like to take this opportunity to say we think all in10 readers are very intelligent and kind.

▼ The greatest dancer

An 81-year-old, Britain’s oldest ballerina, has passed her grade eight exam in the classical dance – on the same day as her 11-year-old granddaughter. That calls for a standing ovation!

▼ hug it out

Tomorrow is national hug day... so give someone a cuddle. It’s guaranteed to put a smile on both your faces.

▼ Poet’s Party

Friday is national bard Rabbie Burns’ birthday. So celebrate with haggis, neeps and tatties – and a wee dram.

▼ standing Tall

There’s going to be a Wimbledon statue for Andy Murray. We can’t think of anyone more deserving.

▼ molar bear

A British dental expert was flown to Armenia to treat a 30-stone bear with toothache. The pain was un-bear-able.

▼ Tough cookies

It’s apparently Blue Monday tomorrow – but we’re ignoring that. Let’s rename it Chew Monday, and treat ourselves to a packet of chocolate digestives.

▼ say aye Tae a Pie

Wednesday is National Pie Day, when we can all tuck into a savoury or sweet treat without fear of guilt.

▼ book of life

Are you sitting comfortably? Saturday is the first day of this year’s National Storytelling Week, when we can rediscover the power of a good yarn.

▼ chipping off The weight

Scottish Slimmers are set to release the UK’S first grilled frozen oven chip, which contains half the fat of rival fries and are included in the diet plan’s “free food” list. Great for New Year’s resolutions!

we’d love To hear from you:
