Pick 'n' Mix

Sweets Factory 14 Wesley Street, Southport. 

Traditional Sweets / Hand Made Toffee & Fudge / Party Bags / Gift Boxes / Pick 'n' Mix Sweets

Whilst on a Spa weekend with the girls in Southport, we stumbled upon this little gem. Between us I think we either tried or bought one of every sweet in the shop...

I would advise you make a visit if you find yourself in the Southport area, but make sure you have time to kill as once you're in, you will never want to leave.

Bottom Drawer #1

This frame contains a screen print, advertising the Lancaster and Morecambe College of Art  Foundation Show 1971. 

My best friend Kay brought it home this evening after finding it on her travels. A present for my bottom drawer, she said. The problem is the contents of our bottom drawers are exploding out of the flat!  

This print is significant as not only do I have a love for screen printing after studying it on my own Art Foundation, Morecambe is also the home town of my chap.

Night or Day?

This Sunday afternoon I approached Matthew's gig and the smell of anticipation reeked out onto Oldham Street, almost (not quite) as bad as the toilets in there. After a few hours of everyone catching up with everyone, the set began…

Risking my life, I clambered up onto a beer soaked bench to get this shot (not the best idea I've ever had in 5inch heels). It was taken with my Polaroid Impulse Camera, using PX 680 Colour Shade / First Flush Film.
