May contain a heavy dose of Jim Kerr
Well, what the Simple Minds fandom really needed was yet ANOTHER Facebook group. Sigh. I’m already in f*** knows how many. But the latest is “official”. Excuse my initial cynicism but…what’s the objective? Simple Minds Official for band news only? Jim posts there. Fuck all the wonderful interactivity that used to happen? No more visitor…
Well…it’s a theory… I had to ask. Anyway…my passport is ready. And the money will soon follow… My passport photo STILL sucks! Lol. Can we see supermodel passport photos? I mean, if even Kate Moss or Naomi Campbell’s passport photos look shit then I won’t feel so bad. I mean…geez I know I’m no stunner…
The “rumbles” continue…crashing like waves to the shore…soon leading to a full on tsunami…
For fear of looking like the most pathetic, sycophantic fangirl this side of the Clyde, I am going to express here just how happy I am to see this evening’s looooooooong overdue post…because HERE I *am* a sycophantic fangirl.

I’m starting to go through the process of tidying up my Flickr account. With something like 20,000 photos in there, it is getting to be quite a trawl looking through them for a specific photo. Yesterday I started with a folder of all the black and white SM pics up to 1984, today I started…
Totally unexpected and out of the blue… (PS: Didn’t mean to cut all that positive feedback off…but it was the only way I could fit the inclusion of my pic in there, leaving the post as it appeared on the SMO timeline as so.) February 14th, 2017, was the last time this happened…so, yep, it…

And I never would. I never did. I asked what I knew was a rather rhetorical question. Trying to be light-hearted and upbeat for something that actually made me feel rather forlorn, but I never asked why it was. I was pretending to ask for clarity on something that was all too clear. I would…
