Instagram reciprocity
Yesterday one of my favourite artists shared a photo of painting that I particularly liked. It does seem to me her technique keeps improving so I liked and commented on it with just one word – ‘amazing’. I really thought it was, you know? For that she liked and commented on one of my latest…

I’d rather be… in A&E
Anyway… My mobile is being a bit funny after spending the entire week under my fridge and I’m scared to look at my emails. Otherwise I am not too bad, I suppose. I just had 3 course dinner in Sandalwood Court, Swindon and it’s only been a few hours since I realised that Queen Elizabeth…
