Saturday Snapshots #69 - The Answers


Steady on, now ladies of a certain age... if you're Looking Through The Eyes of Love this morning, now's not the time to become a Daydreamer. We have serious business here - namely, the answers to yesterday morning's Saturday Snapshots.

Very quick recap today as I feel proper done in on Saturday night, so no time for the usual shout-outs, I'm afraid, other than to say 'Welcome back, Lynchie' and apologise to Chris if this was a hard one. Every week somebody different says it's a hard one, so that must be variety, eclecticism or maybe I'm just running out of 'easy ones'.

If I Didn't Care, I'd wouldn't reveal the answers right now...

  3. Like the pic at the top of the page! As for the Saturday Snapshots series - Could It Be Forever? How Can I Be Sure?

    Just listened to the No. 1 song again - It featured on the soundtrack to the film I, Tonya which we watched last night. I bored Mr WIAA with all the trivia as I wrote about it last year. The Bee Gees had been estranged from each other for quite some time but got back together one afternoon, put it all behind them, and wrote the song in half an hour.

    Thanks again for all your efforts.
