This date will forever be in my memory, the day a-ha announced the break-up!
I was surprised to find Magne at his preview art show tonight. I thought maybe he might not show up because he didn’t want to talk about the announcement of the band breaking up today, but we arrived at the same time. No words were exchanged but I gave him a smile. Actually, at the time I was too distraught to say anything. As I write this now I’m still moody and close to tears. I’d like to wake up in the morning to find it wasn’t real but I know that it is. I knew it had to end sometime but next year, its a bit too soon. I’m also upset about all the fansites that we’ve spent hours keeping up to date and for the friendships that have formed. I will definitely keep my blog going as long as I can and thank everyone for the comments and nice words to say about it.
I saw some lovely friends: Ruth, Gitz, Chris F, Karen, Geraldine, Laura, Vicky, Kellie, Belinda, Netta, Chaz, Roz and Julia. I’m sorry if I left anyone out. I know faces I’m just really rubbish at remembering names. It was great to see you!
Anyway, here’s some of the pieces from the collection. I didn’t photograph all of them:
Thanks to Gitz for posing beside QRS.

At least your blog can still report on the guys’ individual goings-on. Plus, let’s look on the bright side – we still get one more year, and it’s going to be a great one!
Great pictures!
Thanks for sharing!!
Thanks for sharing Karen! I will still look forward to more of Magne’s art – I missed this one, but there’ll be another, and while I’m sad that A-ha are going out on a high note, they won’t be gone completely
