I survived the 17th of May. All the marching, playing, the rain and sunshine. Even the part of the day where I was locked out of my apartment after being so tired I had returned the car and the keys to my home and got back with the keys to the car (luckily I got… Continue reading Photos from Yesterday – I’m a survivour!

Sadly my temporary phone camera is… Continue reading Heddon Street Kitchen
