Miranda about the above photo, which taken in 1980: "Me when I met Plume". Cropped version, full version below.
Note: The exchanges on this page took place in Facebook Messenger, Sunday 2nd October 2022, after I had asked Miranda permission to use some of her photos. I like the immediacy of this form of communication. Stories can be told by any channel, device, platform, etc.
Me: "Are the first 2 here at Camden Lock? Can you remember who took them? https://www.facebook.com/groups/thealbert/posts/891256235110783/ Will send you my blog link when goes out. J "
Miranda: "Hiya there are two at Heathrow Airport- when we all went to see Mike off to San Francisco- I love the expression of the bloke in the queue ahead of me and Plume !!! [Me: see below] Think this was 1980".
"A year later Plume and Fish went to SF, and a year later I went on my own in the summer of 1982. I stayed with Tracy Telder and Elenie Opfer - Plume’s friends and together we got a ‘drive away’ to New York - a white Cadillac - see photo. In New York we stayed with a women from the WOW cafe and they gave me the addresses of a women in West Berlin - in September I went there and on 18th September 1982, I met my soulmate Ulli Ull in West Berlin - we have just celebrated our 40th anniversary!!!! So without Plume and that trip to Heathrow, I would have never have met Ulli xxxx".
