I'm back if I can get the app to work. The app seems a bit rubbish!

I am at a total dark and dreech low after losing my part time job and my boyfriend at the weekend :(

Just to remind myself that there are good weeks out there! Have had one of those. I spent last Friday night visiting with my big sis Amanda from my birth mum's side. We had lost touch for several years and I found her on ebay last January when I was browsing through hippy jewellery and she was selling! Missed my nephew Jordan so much as had not ( Read more... )

Claire and I went to Munich last weekend to see the Cure play at the Olympiahalle. It was without a doubt the most amazing gig I've ever been to. German folk are so different at gigs, none of this pushing you around, everyone respects your space. We were about 3 rows standing from the front so had a really great view and it wasn't all crushed.

Phil and I went out last night to Glasgow to meet Mr Deluxe who was up with his 100 punks exhibition again. Apart from the amusement provided by neds running around the train swigging buckie and writing "Aye wid ah" on each other's tracksuits with dayglo pens we got there with no major upsets. Even got a ride to the train station from my son's dad ( Read more... )

Recent photos from Johnny Deluxe's "100 Punks" exhibit which was visiting Flesh, a graphic design shop, in Edinburgh from 1st June. It was lovely to see Deluxe and get to know Claudia better. I took my son Dylan (the wee kid) and my husband's wee brother (the bigger kid). Unfortunately Phil was working so he couldn't attend :(

( Hateville Heroes, Friday 22nd July at Glasgow Art School )

Just back from a week in Somerset & Devon with the kids. Bloody English school holidays started yesterday, so what should have been a 8 hour drive turned into a 13 hour nightmare, with us crawling up a 150 mile stretch of the M6 for 6 hours. Add that to everyone having the runs through my crappy attempts at barbequeing, and you'd have enough to ( Read more... )
