Where would we be without emergency Boots disposable cameras! I LOVE the idea of having photo albums just for film photos (& very impressed you’ve done that for so long!!). There’s truly something so special about capturing moments on film, they always look like the memories themselves actually feel. <3

I love the fact you use an actual camera and have your photos developed. I used to do this - think you have inspired me to start again.

Happy Memories ❤️

Oh, self-adhesive photo albums are SO bad for the longevity of your photos!

Oh good to know! What do you recommend using? x

Either an album with archival paper and using an archival adhesive to attach your photos or a pocket page album, where you just slip your photos into archival plastic sleeves. I'm in the US and primarily use either Citrus Twist 6x8 albums with pocket pages in a variety of configurations or albums and pocket pages from Simple Stories and Scrapbook.com. For adhesive, I use a Tombow tape runner.

Hi Anna, I hope it’s ok to ask you via your substack but the baserange top you’ve just posted can I ask you what the sizing is like. Is it TTS oversized? I would love to buy it. Thanks x

Of course! I have the L - I would usually wear a Medium, but liked how the L added more ripples to the fabric. I hope that helps! x

I love the photo album idea and it made me wonder if you have a system for saving/organizing kids artwork?

I sadly don't! I'm terrible at that! We have a few up in our kitchen cupboards, but aside from that I haven't found the perfect way! x

I'm already excited to try this porridge. I used to try the egg-white addition but a whole frickin' egg? Consider me intrigued (I follow your style advice religiously so I shall happily be shepherded towards this...).

ok, i have a question - how come some people look good in all hats? and i look terrible in all hats? is the trick to have long hair? is it my face shape? can anything be done?! is there one kind of hat that suits everyone - and if so, what is it?! do you have any hat advice? i look rubbish in bobble hats and sunhats alike and i can wear a cap, but it's very American, isn't it [and I'm not American, does that matter?]
