May contain a heavy dose of Jim Kerr
That is the question. It is many a SM fan’s holy grail, to go to Taormina for a stay at Villa Angela. I was mulling over the idea again tonight. Looking at what’s available at the hotel and checking plane fares from Luton to Catania around my birthday. The idea of spending my 49th birthday…

Well, it seems like the Oz fans got an absolute treat tonight – and La Diva (aka Laird Dash Fandango – Mr Kerr) seemingly was showing off a new shirt. Suits you, Sir! I can’t say how much I wished to have been there. I am absolutely GUTTED I couldn’t make ot out there! ??…
Oh, holy fucking shitflaps, he’s bringing up 2020 as the full itenirary tour year for Oz, again! I should have pulled out all the stops to go! I NEARLY did! I nearly booked a flight that would have had me out there by now. I was at the Etihad website, I was at the last…
Is *not* a thing I imagine Jim is thinking right now of me. Lol. He’s probably relishing being 12,000 miles away! If there is even a thought about it at all. In the story of the Kerr family’s ALMOST emmigration to Australia, I am also glad his mum had a change of heart, because there…
Don’t have too much fun without me, Sir ?
I saw this photo of Jim wearing flip flops (what we Aussies call “thongs”) some years back. I thought…”Well, he’s in the thongs…so he’s already in the right footwear. Let’s ‘accessorise’ him a bit.” So, here we are! Jim’s ready for Oz! Wish I was! Short of some miracle…it ain’t happening 🙁 So, here’s the…
Has never felt so far away. And no matter how I try and work it…I can’t get out there, yet. There is just no safety net if something were to happen. Money is just far too tight right now. Perhaps if I could borrow the cost of the airfare, to be paid back once money…
Give me strength! Australian Prime Minister, Scott Morrison, has got it in the neck because his “Eighties Plus” Spotify playlist has only one Aussie song in it! Lol (They better not look at MY playlist then! Though, to be fair, I have plenty of other playlists that are Oz themed, with quite a number of…

It’s all so…timely! The impending whirlwind whistle-stop to Newcastle is exactly two weeks away. I won’t make it out there. I never really believed I had much chance to begin with. But…I know all the stuff. I shouldn’t feel maudlin. It’s a one off! I’ve been to 19 Simple Minds gigs in the past two…
