Welcome to my photo album, the new (this is a newer photo album for those who are interested) and the old, each and every one in these albums are special to me in some way, whether they were the lovely person that decided to smile at me that day or my very best friend. Though I can not say if these pictures will delight you as much as they have delighted me over the years.
First the family:
Ned, my oldest brother, as only I know him. Yes he laughs, yells, makes funny faces and every once in a while (all the time when no one is looking) pretends to be a superhero. Seriously... I have his jedi light saber fighting/dance/moves on tap somewhere. Really, that home film is HILARIOUS! But I've already embarrassed him enough so I won't post his jedi photos- he's got the real authentic clothes and everything.
Brody, the second oldest, really a great guy. He's smarter than he looks folks!

These are photos from an old photo album, but some of my favourite.
When I was younger there were a lot of men in my life.
From Jack (left) to Mickey (right), but no one did it quite like Eric.
He may not look like much with his big ears and goofy grin. He had the most unadorned appearance of all my boyfriends, his short brown hair worn close to the skull and his endless supply of leather jackets, dark trousers, heavy boots, and various v-neck jumpers could put any mother off him. Being that I dated him while I was 18 & 19 and he was quite a few years my senior left my mum a bit frazzled over the whole thing. (Apparently I had a thing for guys a wee bit older.) Mum even tried flirting with him a bit the first time he stepped through the door not knowing that we were together, to be fair, we weren’t ‘together-together’ at the time.
Eric Harkness, my first love. I had boyfriends before him obviously but he was the first guy I ever fell in love with. He was a bit older than me, but no matter, he had gorgeous blue eyes and a beautiful way about him. Eric was always an enabler, encouraging others to act upon their more positive impulses, something I never had difficulty with, probably why we got on so well. Others often credit him with making them better people and I am no except.
After swearing off men, at least in that way for two years I met David, actually we met before right after Eric, through my brother Ned (who you will see later no doubt), and became best friends instantly, and much more than that later on. David is probably the most significant person in this photo album (other than my family of course) because he made such a huge impact on my life, for the better I assure you.
Meet David Carlyle, (and me of course), we were the best of friends, he got me out of trouble loads of times, had a sexy Scottish accent and really good hair, and most importantly made me laugh until my belly ached.
We had some of the best of times together, Halloween was particularly great. On the left we went to a party, I was a French maid and David was James Bond, I think. On the right we actually found a police box and pretended it was the TARDIS while being ‘Rose Tyler & The Doctor,’ that was very possibly the best Halloween ever!
Conventions were a huge hit with him, I liked accompanying him on his various travels whether it was for business or pleasure. Probably because he made me laugh so and we had a marvelously good time, no one ever seemed to mind that I was there either, that was lucky. Besides he always looked good in a kilt, or a suit aye? And look how tiny I am comparatively, hehe.
We traveled a lot together, I love this picture, and the place was fantastic, though I was bloody cold. Dunno how David could lend me his jacket, but he did, being the perfect gentleman I suppose.
That man could seriously make me laugh. David made you feel like you were special, everyone he touched he made their lives better, made you feel remarkable, a little less ordinary. The best part though was the dancing, and it was epic, he is fantastic.
