Happy memories

[whirlpools]

I just thought it would be nice to have a place where people could post happy memories.

Not everyone finds it helpful to look back so please take care of yourselves if you do look back.

I remember when I used to go to the seaside with our Springer, Katie. She would get wild. She would dig holes in the sand and drop stones in them, and bark at the stones. My dad would throw stones in the sea and Katie would go in to the point her stomach didn't get wet (she didn't like that much) and bark at the stones. We would then go to the cafe on the beach and my parents had Bovril and my brother and I had hot chocolate.

When I was younger, my brother and I would have friends over and we'd often go exploring in our pasture. I have a lot of awesome memories: scavenger hunts, playing cops and robbers, trying to build a cabin.

One of my favorite memories was when we found a good hill, minimal rocks, and had downhill races. My dad always told us that it was dangerous to run downhill and no doubt it is. There just is no feeling quite like it, the wind in your face, the loss of control as you just try to keep your feet underneath you. It's exhilarating.

I have to say, I still love running downhill :)

When I was a lot younger, when my cousin would come round for a sleepover, me, her and my brother would gather all our teddies and sit them in a circle and have teddy meetings. I can't remember the topics exactly but yeah, good times.

I have a lot of very happy memories with my cousin as a kid :)

This is a really lovely idea for a thread. :)

I was looking at some old photos yesterday. I remember being on holiday in Florida aged 11, with my parents, brother, nan and granddad, jumping into inflatable tyres in the swimming pool and trying to see how far out we could jump.
