This sequence is from a Big Birthday I had this time last year. I laid out tables stuffed with my memorabilia and invited guests to eat cake, drink champagne and browse.
It is a world so far away now that it’s hard to believe it really happened. It was a fabulous day, and later we danced and ate pizza in the local pub. All pictures, moving and static, thanks to Michelle at Submit to Love Studios.
I'm originally from Liverpool and worked as a national magazine journalist for more than 30 years before suffering a stroke at age 53. I started blogging as part of a neuro-rehabilitation programme and wrote the very first entries with one finger of my disabled left hand. Later, art became another therapy for me at Headway East London's Submit To Love Studios. I write about my daily activities and encounters. In 1988, I married Jane. We are still together today, sharing our lives and making each other laugh.
