May contain a heavy dose of Jim Kerr
This photo was shared by Bruce Findlay on Twitter a few days back. It’s of Simple Minds (and Bruce) receiving gold discs for New Gold Dream in Australia in 1982. Pictured are Jim Kerr, Derek Forbes (behind Jim), Mike Ogletree, Mick MacNeil and Bruce. The photo was sent to Bruce by former Roadrunner magazine founder…
Despite how it seems, I hate having pictures taken of myself. I like group shots….documents of hanging out with other people…moments caught for all time…but just an intimate shot of me alone, taken by someone else (as opposed to my silly selfies which normally have me pulling stupid faces or generally being a ninny)? No….
Remembering halcyon days with a rainbow of hearts… Back when I could dream he loved me. Lol Silly girl
You can tell, right? Lol Now…if it had been cricket, darts, snooker or strongman, I’d have had a chance. Oh, well. Such is life… ?? ??
Last year’s trip to Glasgow was for me to appear on quiz show Fifteen To One. My shows are finally due to air as of Wednesday. And so, despite how it appeared…that I was going up to Glasgow on a doughnut date with Jim (God, I bloody wish! NEVER gonna happen!), there was something more…monumental…

It’s not “photographic likeness” portraiture – I seriously doubt I will EVER get there, but that’s ok. I’m at the point where I almost want to show him…but…I know I’m not thick skinned enough. If I…
This still gives me a giggle a few days later. I never dared respond to it…and I was SSOO hoping Jim would. Just something tongue-in-cheek like “her room at Villa Angela is booked. She’s paying, of course. I’m not MADE of money!”, or similar. Lol And, Greg…in my ETERNAL DAMN DREAMS we would “get a…
I’m liking the black more. It’s a bit lacklustre – but I haven’t given it a “proper” wash with pro product yet. Hope I can get it to shine up. I need a style! I’m ssoo over having Derek Forbes’ hair circa 1981. Lol
