Time to kick back and have a little fun in my life. I don’t know about you but I’m tired of all this rain. And I haven’t shared with Paula in the longest time. I really loved the elegant lady in her Black & White Sunday, After and Before. I thought I’d share my husband. Discreetly, of course.
He always complains that I only ever show his back in my photos. Perhaps he’ll like this better?

I daren’t say his feet are his best feature or I’ll get a clip round the ear, Cathy. I kinda like the James Dean moodiness of the B & W. 🙂 🙂

What a good-looking man! My guy begs me to not take photos of him, so I do the ‘leg and foot’ shot also. I tell him it’s his best side. Good luck with the sun! We’re not seeing much of sunshine here in New England, for sure.

I fell about laughing at that. 🙂 🙂 Mick, not quite so amused. But he does know which is his best side, bless him. He’s a love. Has to be, to put up with me.

Sue, Whatsapp is much more versatile. You can use is for texts, sending photos & video. You can set up groups, so for example we have one for our family where we can share pics & videos. Rather than having to send them individually to each person, you can just send it to the group. In addition, you have the option of video chats (like Skype) & sending voice messages as opposed to typed texts. I am sure there is more than it can do but that’s as far as I have gotten. Hope that helps!
