Well Helloooooo APJ.
I am going to be working with Hiram Green in April, at the Esxcence 2020. It will be for three days, and the first time that I have actually had the opportunity to work full days. I am so excited. I love his brand and his work and it will be an privilege to do so.

Happy New Year dear APJ! How did you celebrate the new year? Do any of you write new year resolutions?
We survived the holidays – barely. It was a host of things that just made it terribly stressful for us all. New Year’s Eve was a complete dud as I wrongly assumed that they would be doing loads of fireworks in our village. Not quite sure if it is just not tradition here to do as many fireworks as they do on the national holiday or if it was the thick fog that set in here in the hills. Anyway – we started celebrating on the 1st to make up for the previous night.

Hey there APJ!
Welcome to 2020. New year, new direction. I am not doing written perfume reviews any more. Well, that is not quite true. Once in a while IF I find something that I think amazing, then I will. What I am gonna do is pick perfumes and the review will be contained in the two or three photos. Add a line or two, job done.

I said I was gonna take a break. I am so damn busy. And yet here we are.
“You can’t have silence on the radio; people will turn away from the station.” Robert Barry. American artist. Conceptual art.
I had my first radio show alone last week. Alone in the studio. I got there early enough to set it all up without going into panic mode. I mean there is not a lot to set up to be honest. I had my suspicions that there might be a hitch when I could not listen to my music on the cue button. Damn. I watched the seconds count down until my jingle played, turned on the microphone and — yeah.
UNSPLASH.

Hey there APJ Crew and Friends
“White shirt now red, my bloody nose, Sleeping, you’re on your tippy toes, Creepin’ around like no one knows, Think you’re so criminal …….” Bad Guy. Billie Eilish.
I recently bought a white shirt. Damn expensive, beautiful cotton, no collar. I have wanted one for years but every time I tried one on I looked like death warmed up. White shirt, gray hair. I fell in love with this one particular shirt in the window of a store which was at the time shut, and asked Blondeswunder to go in have look at it for me when it was open. Next thing I knew she called me and said she had bought it and that I owed her money. I love it. And I have to say that a well cut shirt is worth the extra dosh. And as long as I put a ton of slap on and wear a coloured lipstick, I don’t look like the grim reaper.

Well hello APJ
I am roaming around Scotland as you read this, although I am sat here writing it a good week beforehand. It is gonna be the shortest post ever as I am up to my eyeballs in cookie dough, packing, decanting, and attempting an online checkin. altho I lived in England for some years I never made it up to Scotland. I have always wanted to go and we finally booked a week there. A couple of days in Edinburgh and the we will head up to Fort William and see that happens along the way. What scents am I taking?
