If these toes don't make you smile, we don't know what will :-)

With the long (and sunny) weekend behind us and nothing but dark clouds overhead, it would be easy to succumb to the post-bank holiday blues.

So as a cheery antidote, HuffPost UK Lifestyle asked the office to tell us what makes them happy.

From fresh flowers in the kitchen and pictures of piglets to eating poached eggs and drinking sangria, here are plenty of things to turn that frown upside-down.

What makes you happy? Email your pictures to uklifestyle@huffingtonpost.com or tweet us @HuffPoLifestyle using the hashtag #HPHappy
