How beautiful it is now and it’s in a little cheap glass vase on my kitchen table. I photographed it with a backdrop of a new skirt I bought (‘cos I ‘m worth it) and it’s beauty shines through.

So a small bouquet for blippers on Sunday.

I love Charlotte Church’s rendition and also love Nina’s raspy version, but this one sometimes almost brings a tear to my eye

Tonight on bbc4 at 7.30 there is a docu on self portraits. This is a very interesting concept going back through the ages. If you have a moment look at Albrecht Duerer’s self portrait but please read his bio also and the sad story about his brother.

Then at11pm Cindy Sherman - also worth a look
