I know quite a few who like it :)
November 16, 1981

Tommy Tutone releases the single “867-5309/Jenny”.

The song peaked at number 4 on the Billboard Hot 100.

Probably every Jenny that grew up in the 80’s hates this song! 😁

I know I repost a lot of Gail's posts, but I have bought from her; today I happen to be wearing the Pete (cat) t-shirt. It's all beautifully designed, good quality, promptly delivered and highly recommended. :)
Right then. It's mid-November and if you're thinking about #Christmas shopping, now's the time. All my products are designed here in Manchester and made in the UK.

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.

Amazing works of art. My daughter is so very talented.
It would be a blessing if you could repost her art.

the profile of the snow owl and black cockatoo are my top favorites. The owls are 24"x36" and the cockatoo is 36"x40". Wish the photos did them justice - they look even better in person!
