I have many. I love trees and this is a picture of some woods where I lived just outside Edinburgh two houses ago. The woods were why I wanted to live there. My husband wanted to live there because of a particular wall! *shakes head in disbelief*
I love hills, and this is the hill just through my garden now - Calton Hill in Edinburgh.
And:
I love my new garden office, the Crabbit Hutch, where I am at the moment. It's pouring with rain outside but so cosy and bright inside.
I love being in my bed with a book. I won't show you a picture of that, if you don't mind.
I love standing on a beach, looking out to sea. Any beach. Any sea. But here's one. Pringle Bay in South Africa, where I was earlier this year.
I love the Yurt at the Edinburgh International Book Festival. I wrote about that here. And here is me enjoying the sun while sitting outside it. It's always sunny there...
Do go and enter the SBT competition but meanwhile tell me: where is your favourite place?
I have my entry almost ready for this - I like lots of very picturesque places so it was tempting to go for the pass of Killiecrankie or the West Sands at St Andrews, but actually I have chosen somewhere quite different - it isn't based on any aesthetic considerations but on what happens there.
ReplyDeleteI'll look out for it!
DeleteOh c'mon. Fluffy pink dressing gown, red tartan boots, four poster bed and the Famous Five. We MUST have a pic. Please.
ReplyDeleteNope ;)
DeleteTop of Hengistbury Head, just down the road from me. There's a 360-degree view from there - Isle of Wight, Purbeck, New Forest, Dorset hills. Distant horizons always work for me, and this view gives you them in all directions.
ReplyDeleteYes, I agree re distant horizons. There's good psych and neuro evidence that supports it, too - good for creative thinking.
ReplyDeleteCalton Hill (the one behind my house) has 360 degree views, too - fab.
