Yesterday I saw Kirstie and Phil discussing where their happy place was. They both said it was their bed. Mine is my bath, and my garden in the summer. Where is yours?

With my head on my husband's chest and his arm around me

a caravan by the seaside would be my happy place but seeing as that is only a dream then the bed would be mine. Wonderfully warm and comfortable making my back and hip ache less! I am usually tucked up with my cat and dogs so pure heaven!

Mine is back in my native homeland - the North East. Walking along the river bank at Durham City or on the beach at Seaham collecting sea glass. Ah bliss!

My greenhouse, especially in the rain.

The village where my grandparents lived and where I will be buried. My garden on a nice day. My armchair with a book on a not so nice day.

By the sea

In the garden when the sun is shining, chilling with a book.

Surrounded by trees with the knowledge that I'm safe smile

So many ....
The Royal Albert Hall, where I can lose myself in glorious music in the most wonderful iconic building that is my favourite in the world.

The beach at Aldeburgh in Suffolk, preferably with fish & chips in newspaper from one of the two great chippies.

White Hart Lane in the 1960s where I go in my memory to watch Jimmy Greaves at the peak of his talent - so grateful I got to see him then.

Best of all - bed, DH and me with our books or just chatting and laughing . If there is heaven, that is it.

Standing with my small GC and giving them a hug - the wave of joy is like nothing else. Holkham Beach is a happy place for me, and so is my fabulously comfortable bed.

In my garden and greenhouse in the Spring and Summer, and in my sewing room the rest of the year!

Kartush Mon 28-Feb-22 14:03:27

Anywhere my husband is

JaneJudge - Turf Moor for me too along with Pendle Hill or any hill or fell!

Superflygal747 Mon 28-Feb-22 13:59:20

A motor circuit ?

Moggycuddler Mon 28-Feb-22 13:49:37

My afternoon rest in bed, listening to a good audio book with my cats snuggling next to me.

red1 Mon 28-Feb-22 13:39:29

many places,my recliner,being with a good friend, some family members, meditating when i reach the silence.

grandMattie Mon 28-Feb-22 13:38:56

I don’t really know. I have subsumed myself so much for my husband and children, that I no longer remember. Sad, aren’t I?
Probably, either doing some sewing/patchwork, or sitting with my back to the spring/autumn sunshine, reading a good book.

The North Coast in N.Ireland on a sunny day, walking my dog on its beautiful beaches.

Nannylovesshopping Mon 28-Feb-22 13:03:42

Nannan2 Happy for you to join me, I’ll move up a bit ?

Sweetpea60 Mon 28-Feb-22 13:03:11

My happy place is on our allotment especially on lovely long summer days.

GrammarGrandma Mon 28-Feb-22 12:55:11

The Campo in Siena.

Nannan2 Mon 28-Feb-22 12:54:43

I'm happy near the sea too, but not been near it in almost 2years ☹

Alison333 Mon 28-Feb-22 12:53:44

On the beach at Hannafore in Looe where I can see the waves smashing on the shingle and Looe island in the distance.

Libman Mon 28-Feb-22 12:52:17

Sitting in a quiet, peaceful room, in a shaft of warm sunlight, in a comfy chair with a book and a view of the sea outside.
