May contain a heavy dose of Jim Kerr
Happy Kerrsday Thursday everyone! This week’s theme is…belts! Circumstances being as they are this week, the time I would usually have to compile my list of pics, gifs, etc somewhat eluded me. So, while I am still compiling…please enjoy Jim, (and the rest of Simple Minds) wearing a belt in his lovely unorthodox fashion! There…
Jim being interviewed at the Mandela 90th Birthday concert, aka 46664. Jim, recounting how he’d been privileged to meet Mandela on several occasions and that this time every act on the bill was getting a chance of a photo op with Mr Mandela. Jim says “He still has a spark in his eyes.” The interviewer retorts,…
Deliriously happy, having just married Chrissie. The boy’s in love :-))) Those cheeks! (The ones on his face! – Though, having said that…) I could pinch them! Lol

And how could I forget having this done for me? Sooo going up on my wall when I get back to the UK :-))
I love this image of him so, so much. I was playing about with it yesterday in the app I use for my photo edits. A good hour or so of just playing around with the editing tools within it. This was one result. Makes it look as though I sketched this picture of him….
A man, sharing his memories of being a Bowie fan as a 13 year old boy. In a different time and place, I think I’d have been quite smitten with this boy. Sadly, I would have had sod all money too! For I’d have done the same as him – spent any money I had…
I keep wanting to ask what he thinks of the rest of Blackstar. He might not have even had the chance to listen to it yet…I wonder… I’ve done it now anyway. God help me…
