Have you ever wept tears of joy ?

When Frank Worthington scored the winner in our end in the last minute in 1980 at Old Trafford, the theatre of wet dreams.

Tears of joy? On getting home after a week sailing, couldnt find the cat, then seeing him running down the road towards me and slamming the front door just as he got to it.

No can't say I have. Dont really cry at all. Cried when my daughter almost died and even then had to take myself off to the bogs and do it in private.

Been married 22 years and only seen him cry twice. Me, twice a week on a good week, twice a day on a bad one.

I can't watch any old soppy film without surreptitiously blowing my nose. Got worse as I've got older, I'm such a wuss.

Yes. Every time my invoice is paid.

I cried with anger when I first read the book (at the end of her first letter to God). It is a brilliant piece of work.

+1 Another blub for the Colour Purple.

once went to see the film "The Colour Purple" (it's about a young black girl growing up in the early 1900's.) with a girlfriend it was on screen 3 of an ABC cinema the room was full it held about 25 people in it and me and the girlfriend were like a couple of spots on a domino.

Within 20 minutes everyone in the place was crying, me included, just got completely caught up in the moment it was a very moving experience

Only once, when Motherwell won the Scottish Cup in 1991.

I cannot recall crying for joy. I tend to cry very easily when watching films and plays though, I have no idea why. My wife is utterly unmovable, the most she has done it almost cry when Fantine died in the stage version of Les Mis. Otherwise she has not shed a tear since someone misjudged a spear thrust and hit her hard enough to rip the lining of her abdominal wall.

Films that can bring tears to my eyes range from Return of the Jedi through Harry Potter to The Phantom of the Opera and many others.

A bowel movement after 6 days of painful constipation.

Bambi, watership down, fluffie bunnies getting muuuuuurdered.

Saw a trailer for "Song for Marion" at the cinema. Looked rubbish - corny, predictable etc. but still had me going...

I well up at the drop of a hat.

Proper crybaby.
