Pregnant, barefoot but not in the kitchen!  My #artwork on the wall; post-birth, do I take A Leap Of Faith and concentrate on #art, or #writing?

What a great way to see out the 1980s: meeting Steven Tyler on Saturday, November 25th, 1989! 


..... and I'll leave you with a few more, just for laughs.  First one is Proofread Julia and me, in 1984 😂😆😅


 I think this one was at the beginning of 1983 
(I had my first blonde highlight in 1984!)

 Julia outside my shop in Northampton, in 1984

 ...and a very early 1980s one - think this was taken in April 1980


Might think about doing a 1990s one some time......

  1. Oh blimey! Love the thoughts of Barb and Rose in particular. And if Alison isn't a Thompson Twin, she must be in Bananarama.

    1. Twice, Cee....!!! You'll like this: my sister Julia got to know the fan club and ended up running the European branch in the 1990s, so she met them many times. They were really nice, by the way - just like normal guys.
