According to I’m 50% Irish ☘️, & 50% Nigerian🇳🇬, I embrace both. My adopted father always told me as a child ‘Mixing is good!’. I agree! All this nonsense people project about preserving their race, & sticking to their own. We bleed the same.

Slight hang over, but well worth the celebrations for 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉 🧡U, Chris & old & new friends 🤗💋. Entertained by the incomparable 💯💯💯💯

What a wonderful way to start the Xmas festivities & prep for an exciting year ahead!!✨✨✨✨✨
thankyou💋

RIP to this poetic master your poetry had a great influence on me growing up, as did your fearless stance on rejecting an OBE. Gone too soon.

1st pic-I spent a lot of my childhood alone. Not sad or lonely, but often in my own little ‘make-believe’ world! Perhaps that’s why I became an actress! Mum would take me with her as she played her cello in orchestral concerts up & down the country. She still performs & teaches today! At 87, she says she’s the best she’s ever been!
(Pic is of distant relatives & me)

2nd pic-That time I ran a marathon a day for 6days through the Amazon jungle in Brazil for charity, risking life & limb. Would I do it again? Hell yeah!! Anything’s possible with a little self belief, prayer & gratitude (oh & grit….plenty of grit!😂).

3rd pic-Just me. Grateful for then, now & the future.😊🙏🏽💯
