Sometimes you’re forced to confront how insane England is. I’m just having a roast dinner in an inn dating to 1429. 😅

🎄✨💜

This year i left my office job and stepped into the world of full time musician. It hasn’t been easy, through illness, two major surgeries, through grief and life. I don’t regret my decision, I appreciate the support and the belief you’ve had in me 💜thank you. See you in 2026. KP 📸 El Jay

It’s so true! When I visit my Nani in Southampton, I often wonder what she makes of all her grandkids with smart phones, cars and uni degrees. When her biggest problem was she didn’t have shoes, or the earthquake that happened whilst she was washing clothes in the river. We’re 2 generations apart 🤯
