Lovely Snapshot

I always enjoy Sim's stories, what a great life she has lived. This story was another of the bitter-sweet vignettes that seem to be her specialty. I loved heariing her voice and it was weirdly exactly as I imagined it to be!

70's again

Every time I listen to any of your pod casts I get drawn in. I loved reading your "slices of life", it's even better hearing them.
