#RPGaDAY2016 - Day Nine: Beyond the game, what's involved in an ideal session?

I feel like this can be done with bulletpoints:

• Time to play in, ie not having to get up early the following morning, nor having been awake/busy since too early so I can enjoy wakeful play til late.
• Being in good physical & emotional health, for much the same reason (and also so I can actively take part without becoming fragile).
• Somewhere comfy to sit.
• At home, I steal the big armchair - large enough to fidgit in without annoying others and so snuggy comfy!
• At Rich's, I have a little corner of floor with cushions that's mine.
• When we go back up to uni, I get to snuggle up on a sofa or cushion pile with friends I don't get to see nearly often enough.
• Snacks! 
• I'm a sucker for Butterkist's toffee popcorn. 
• It was always Haribo Tangfastics when I was at uni.
• Black coffee.
• Tsatsiki or guacamole. Or humous.
• This time of year, mint Cornettos or mint or raspberry Magnums.

And friends. The best bit of all is playing with the best people. But I see that that's the topic for the 14th, so I shan't go into it now.
