Still Hot (or Not!!!)

I changed my font at pYzam.com


Babs published a lovely photo of herself when she was 22 on her blog the other day which reminded me that recently Pinky emailed me with a photo he'd come across when I was about the same age, which he entitled "Who is this?". So here it is:



Now why on earth would I have scraped my hair back like that when my forehead is as big as the rest of my face? Well, this was taken on a holiday I went on with my friend Julie and her family. I remember it was hot, much like it is now. I see I liked wine even then! I had a "thing" for the photographer but fortunately woke up to how stupid I was being when he realised I had a "crush" on him and tried to "cash in". My friend Julie had Marfand's Syndrome and died of organ failure a few years after. Before she died she got married to a man who also had health problems. I think the marriage was happy but it wasn't easy.

I miss you Julie.

Have a great weekend efurrycat :)

I'm sorry about your friend Julie.

Wishing you a happy weekend also ...

You look hot! And I don't mean the weather.

That's very sad about your friend.

That's a nice photo ~ We fink blogger automatically redirected the feed for the new blog ~ we can't see the date of the posts in the blog either ~ we fink it's a theme issue and will try to fix it..

Old pictures are always nice and bring back lots of fond memories ~ sorry to hear about your friend's demise from Marfan syndrome ~ may her soul rest in eternal peace...

I think you looks pretty! What is a crush? Is it when the Giant Kitty sits his bee-hind on something and flattens it?

First, my condolences on your friend.

Second, I wish it had been me that had photographed each of you when you were 22. But I had never been to England, then.
