I persistently plug these because they take time to do, both for me and the guests, so do share and tell people about it if you like it. The aim is to make a quality long read each week. Thanks. #FirstLastAnything

Going to put this on front of you again. The news moves on, but the problems faced by those living in Jamaica are still there.
I know many of you will already have done something to help the people of Jamaica, but if you felt like helping a specific family, this is the GoFundMe set up by my son’s girlfriend for her relatives, who find themselves in dire straits. Every bit helps, shares appreciated. gofund.me/9b5b74984

It's been a very quiet week.
As a small business owner that’s a bit scary heading into my busy season.

So, if you're looking for unique #Christmas gifts, I make prints, homewares, cards & accessories inspired by midcentury design, music & architecture.
