That Was The Week That Was

Do you ever have one of those weeks that completely escapes you? Where so much happens that you literally feel like you are living from one minute to the next and before you know it 10,080 minutes have passed?

Twistin By the Pool

Twistin By the Pool

This look was perfect for me as the past made quite an impact on my thoughts. We often hear these days how we've become a far more disposable society. My Dad would tell me about how when he was younger his Mum just had a few items of clothes and they were made to last [...]

When I Saw Her Standing There…

When I Saw Her Standing There…

I completely made the most of having my friend Joe come and pose for me for these pictures today (thank you Joe). I think I took something like 12 original raw shots and choosing which 3 to put into this post was incredibly tough because I loved all of them. The feature pic of the [...]

People from actors to philosophers are asked 'What Makes Us Human?' and their essay is delivered on the radio and then discussed with the host of the show. It's fascinating to hear all [...]

Turn Your Face Away, From the Garish Light of Day…And Listen to the Music of the Night

My Mums favourite visits to London were to see Phantom of the Opera. She was lucky enough to see it in the mid 80's with Michael Crawford in the lead role and she played the soundtrack at home often. As a young girl I'm not sure I appreciated the 'music of the night' quite as [...]
