I've been non-stop since the weekend of Earth Hour, tonnes of work and a weekend in Amsterdam, no rest for the wicked eh? This week has seen all three projects on the go at the moment move forward.

Life: An OPK week, with some Spencer Tunick naked art thrown in!
Still giggling at the fact I've even applied for this, plus, of course, secretly registered Mr Moregeous to do it with me.
