What is always sure to get your excited? What makes you irrationally happy?

I love it when I get a good reception to a story I’ve read out aloud at my writing group. It’s gratifying when the ending takes them by surprise and you get a laugh, groan or gasp.
I was watching a programme on TV last night about Billy Connolly the Scottish comedian. He’s retired now owing to old age and Parkinson’s disease. He could have hundreds of people laughing until they cried. The feeling must have been amazing for him. Being able to do that would make me irrationally happy🤣

If you were given five million dollars to open a museum, what kind of museum would you create?

A museum of childhood. I love looking at toys from past eras. I often wish I’d saved the toys even from my own children’s childhoods.
When I was little our toys were so simple. Whip and tops were popular. So simple a little wooden spinning top on which we’d chalk different colours, and a little whip or a stick with a piece of string tied to it.) We’d wrap the string around the top and try to keep it spinning as long as possible.
Mechano sets were popular with the boys, (a metal construction set.)
Dolls and prams of course. How I lived my Silver Cross dolly pram.
