I had to think there I have many things that I take for granted that may be classed as indulgence or even fetishes ...my dragons and my shoes
I love Ghost perfume,
but my little luxery is turkish delight ....I don't really eat sweet things but that is one I can't resist but rarely buy as its either too expensive or not found.

Mine is: escaping to our boat for the night , where we fish for Eels whilst getting far to drunk on Rum .

It doesn't happen as often as I'd like but it is bliss when it does.......lol

Dear Secret Agent Squirrel

Hello

I would say that clean and available water is a luxury everyone takes for granted.

Years ago, I had a bottle of perfume called waterbaby.
The smell was gentle, not overpowering at all.

Oh, and having a cup of tea mad for me. Lovely.

Best wishes to all
xx

For me, it has to be a large soft boiled,dippy, fresh egg. They were rather scarce and expensive during my childhood, well there had been a war on, you know.
But I can equate with Bernie my Boy. With also lived in a two up two down until I was about 13, and bath night was on a Friday night, in a tin bath, in front of the fire. We all had to use the same water. Yuk.

A walk in the country or on the cliffs, a spot of blackberry picking and a pint in a village pub - bliss (Unfortunately not many cliffs in Staffordshire so have to make do with the riverbank)

A hot shower any time I want one.

I was raised in a 2 up 2 down terrace house with a scullery, bath night was Sunday, that was it. Rest of the week you wiped your bits with a flannel best you could. Ugh, Ugh, Ugh.

Decades later and I still stand under running hot water and think its a luxury.
