A Freudian slip is when you say one thing but mean your mother

-
Oh to be quite so traditional on a day like today. Yes, indeed, I count myself as quite lucky in that not only do I have some really nice photographs of my mum but we also have quite a good relationship, to this day, even with all the ups and downs that our lives have taken over the years. Some things can and do endure, thankfully. In terms of snaps, I think this is the one I like most of all: captured as a bright young thing, just starting out with my dad. Cigarette in hand, trailer door open. A wide, non-rehearsed, smile. Happy Mother's Day, to you. And to you: this mix is dedicated with a deep love and an eternal gratitude. x

  1. A very happy mother's day to Ms. C up there in the land of smoked fish with aggressive whiskers. It is a stunning picture, really. I hope you both have a wonderful day. x

  2. I love that post title. Too good. Excellent choice of songs as well.

  3. Thank-you! I can only hope the whiskers have been trimmed a bit, to tame the aggression. :)

    On the post title... not mine, of course. I remember reading it somewhere though. No idea who coined it! I do love Loki's stuff - some really good Glasgow hip-hop.
