What activities do you lose yourself in?

View all responses

I had one immediate answer – gardening – plain and simple. Give me some dirt to work and I’m happy. There is truly nothing better, whether its in the garden or at the allotment, than being surrounded by birds and bugs while I work in the dirt to nature’s soundtrack. The weather doesn’t have to be great – I’m Scottish, I’m used to being out in the cold!

That was my immediate answer, but then I thought about it for a few seconds and words like writing, baking, reading, cooking started coming into my mind. Even when I’m doing housework! Basically, being busy is enough for me to lose myself in – I’d just never thought of it like that.
