I love these pictures!!!

Years and years ago, when I was about 20, I used to buy the Nat geographical magazine and a photograph magazine. I'd cut out all these kind of stunning pictures and make collages.
They were pretty awesome even if I say so myself lol

I got too stoned one night, and all over-generous and gave all away to admiring friends.
All except one.

I'll have to find it and post a pic

Silly, is a shame you have not kept them, maybe worth something today.
Why am I not surpised when stonned you more than likely give all your fav possessions away. lol
No bad thing and am guilty myself at times from the past lol

Didge I give lots of things away. Especially to my three lovely nieces! They've all got different items of my jewellery. Scarves, belts and shoes!

lol I thought as much.
Have given away many things I cherished myself, which I guess adds to how much we think of someone to part with such treasures.
