May contain a heavy dose of Jim Kerr
Was sent the loveliest present by my friend, Ruth. It’s been a quiet day. Glasgow has put on some FANTABULOUS weather today. BUT! I’m “Alive And Kicking”. I have my faculties. I’m warm and safe indoors. I have my furbabies to snuggle up to. It’s all good. Yes, 2020 has been a pretty shit year…
Ah…you know what I was saying in my video(s) yesterday about being mildly gutted if my fan bit is not in the book…well… Seemingly those who are in it have been receiving emails about it being confirmed that YES – they ARE in the book and that they can see their piece in the book…
I did this bit of editing work on one of Virginia’s photos of Jim. I asked her permission to share it on my blog and social media. She granted me permission – so please, I ask if you do share, give credit or link back to the blog or social media pages. Either to mine…

I’m reckoning that I work in chronological order. Choose absolute favourite tracks from each album then once they are all collated, streamline and narrow down using certain other criteria until only 50 remain. These start the long list. My “must haves” from Life In A Day.
She’s baaaaack! It’s been “Sycophancy Nancy”s turn to make “art” today. She finished off what Prip started last night. During the font layout and wording, she looked at some pre-made phrases and saw the option in the second piece (the cake reference). She initially thought better of it, then decided – half in jest –…
What a beautiful thing! A comment from a SM fan that I don’t know on SMOG in regards to a post I put up of the “the light shines brightest in the darkest places” fan art. Restores my faith in humanity. Just when you feel the world is at its worst – there are still…
