I don’t think I have really thought about this but I think my perfect reading space has to be cosy. I get cold really fast so there has to be a blanket, I know that a fireplace its too extravagant and will usually encourage others to come and sit with you meaning no real reading will happen. I think it would have a comfy chair that I can perhaps take a nap on and I think I want it to be private. My perfect reading place has usually been in the bathtub. I am relaxed, I can bring a drink in there and I can stay in there for hours reading or editing my work. Usually when I write a first draft of something on my computer I don’t want to look at it again but when I’m in the bathroom with my tablet I am able to look at it with a fresh set of eyes. I also like starting work in the tub, I can write a draft of what I intend to do or I can read a little bit of the book to determine if I wish to continue with the text. I think therefore the perfect place to read is either a really beautiful bathroom or one of those under the stairs libraries like where Harry Potter lived but they have your books and you can just sit, hopefully with some light coming in to keep you warm or enable you to look out the window when you are taking a break.
For writing I’m not too sure, I think you probably just need the right set of tools, the correct pen the right paper or the perfect keyboard and hot drink and it feels like the ideas will just flow. I think I am more experienced in knowing the perfect place to read than to write so I am excited to read what everyone else says.
p.s. I also like to read by the beach but I’m always too distracted by how beautiful the water is that I never seem to be able to fully get into the book.
I name my cars and I think so far my favourite has been urban angel! She took me through the pandemic without any real problems. My mum and I would joke it’s American trash (it’s a ford fiesta) but the thing about ford is their parts are cheap so even when something is really wrong it’s kinda cheap to fix. I think my favourite automobile is one that gives me a good return on investment, has reasonable repair expenses and won’t stop running because of an accident or two.
Honorary mention to my first car a Pontiac that I ran without an oil change for two years and was surprised when it just shut down one day

I think my favourite people are the ones that have stepped in as there have been some holes in my life. Stepped in making me laugh, eating lunch with me, making me feel at home in new places, long phone calls with me, helping me move without being asked and accepting me for who I am.
I just asked my partner and he said he is his favourite person, and I’ll be honest had I known that was an option I may have picked myself tooo!
My favourite place to go in my city is Jaycee Gardens Park. It is a nice 3k walk to Port Dalhousie where you can walk on the pier and see Toronto as shown in the video below. You also walk past the lake where there are often regattas and I’ve seen so many birds during the summer. It’s also dog and kid friendly.
