These are a few of my favourite things.

I love your horse Joseanne!
Here is mine. He was only £40 from Amazon

Oh and the canal directly behind the house.

Lovely doggy pics! Wish we still had one.
And I love your back page, FannyCornforth!

These are two of my favourite things, Hip and Hop. Hip (on the R) was found by dh on a work trip to southern Africa. Hop came from a subsequent trip, to keep Hip company. They each weigh about 40 kg!
They live under the Hippo Tree (aka mega Swiss Cheese plant) whose aerial roots are so untidily hanging down in the pic

We had one of those in outer classroom when I started school

My large framed picture of The Beatles with me sitting behind them. It's in the hall so that when I open the front door people see it and comment and ask me the story behind it. They never do . It's shameless attention seeking.

This pet, who needs neither feeding nor walking. A family member carved him, painted him and added the finishing touches. He likes being part of Christmas in the study.

Very neutral decor throughout here and very few ornaments/knickknacks but I recently spotted a terracotta glazed stylish (I think) very simple vase in a local charity shop.
It just lifts the whole living room and I'm very pleased with it.

Snap Coolgran - very much enjoying having a kitchen-diner.

My glass dining-table, my books my hens and. . . our dog-once she’s dried off.

Lovely photo of Rosie, Maw, and a great excuse for another picture of Gracie
And something stupid I did to the back page of The Times

Bright sunny living room with windows on two sides.
Big comfortable sofa.
Small cosy bedroom (I hate big bedrooms for some reason)
Lots of cupboards in the kitchen.

It sounds as if you definitely chose well, coolgran.

You sound really settled.

25 hours!
That beats cats, for sleeping, I think.

Oh. And 3 minute walk to the river.

Ah, looks like she's having a wild old time to celebrate.

It’s a well-known fact that greyhounds sleep 25 hours a day

We moved house 10 months ago and for the first time ever we have a table in our kitchen. It is now the hub and has totally changed how we live. Previously I’d have been doing something in the kitchen alone. Now chores are more readily shared, or at least having a chat, as we are both in the kitchen.

The lounge is always tidy, no mugs to take to the kitchen etc. Come evening when we settle to watch some tv it marks a definite end to chores.

Ah, looks like she's having a wild old time to celebrate.

Massive windows, airing cupboard, double oven, bus stops right outside my cull de sac a few steps from my flat.

Rosie- especially snuggled into the small of my back.
And she is FIVE today! 🥳 🎉 🐶

Oh goody!
I love pictures of people's treasures.

Oooooh, all of it!! Well apart from the kitchen which needs redoing.

Mostly, I suppose the light and space.

Lovely idea for a thread MissA. Thank you.
I will shortly bombard you with pictures of random nonsense I’ve got in my possession.
My tiny house is packed to the rafters of things that I love.
Looking forward to hearing about and seeing others beloved stuff
