A small group of our Mermaids did a photo shoot back in July - remember those warm summer days? 

We had a lot of fun doing what we always do - splashing around  together 😍

Huge thanks to Kelvin the photographer for sharing the pics with us!

Do you notice how the Telegraph refers to the government as simply the government when it is a conservative one in power, but underLabour, it's Labour as a prefix to government. One word changes everything.
