Been whiling away my Sunday being arty farty… 3 x nine of beauty. I love you, Mr Kerr.

I’m a lucky, lucky girl to work for my Boss Lady (as I affectionately call her) – Virginia Turbett, because I get to enjoy some perks. One being viewing wonderful photos before many others get to see them. Today I was asked to post these to Instagram with the following caption: “Due to popular demand…
It’s been seven years. Seven years since I became that rabid “obsessive”. Seven years since the world of Simple Minds truly opened up to me. I was reminded of the fact of how…embedded in this new-found “obsession” I was by a post that appeared in my FB “memories” a couple of days back. The memory…
