May contain a heavy dose of Jim Kerr
Lol. Couldn’t help do a very cheesy Minds song pun (I learned from the best, right Sir? ) As per usual, these things are oversized for scanning in a A4 scanner, so I had to do it in two parts. Huge thanks to Ally Louise for sending it on to me all the way from…
I can’t tell any more. To me it just looks shit. Meh.. And I was going to leave it alone today. Lol. I DEFINITELY am now!

My friend on Facebook, Sabine, shared this live version of I Would Be Your Slave this morning, and it made me cry. The way David emotes…is just too beautiful! It really made me miss him today. Heathen is such a wonderful album. I think from what Jim said to me in his reply about Blackstar…

My method will be FAR from “orthodox” – but I can see it taking shape! PLEASE let it be all I want it to be in my head!
I want to try and turn THIS… Into THIS… WISH ME LUCK!
