The morning after Green Day and Merrily, we popped to a car boot in Pimlico.
Brilliant gig.
They didn’t manage to keep the kitchen clean
I hung out at the back for most of the gig.
We popped into London for a Comedy for Kids show at the Udderbelly on the bank holiday weekend. George loved it. We had time to have a go at table tennis at the Wonderground and play in St James’ Park.
In late May the fair was back in Bognor. George and I went on the £1 a ride night. We experienced one of the worst ghost trains I’ve ever been on.
I won a prize, thanks to Mccarthy and Stone, of free tickets to Goodwood Races. George was more interested in the fair than the horses. And I didn’t win any money. But it was fun.
Michelle had a stall at Brent Lodge Open Day earlier in the year.
I was the hired help. But spent most of the time staring at the Polish bread.
There were a few other stallholders. But not a lot of visitors.
Brent Lodge is quite a nice Wildlife Hospital near Selsea.
In Mid May I did the Chester Half Marathon. Lots of Bananas and free Lucozade at the start.
I relaxed in the sun before. But really struggled with the race. Not training for a month is not good.
My dad managed to get a picture of me coming up the hill to the end.
One of the worst 1/2 marathon times in a long time. But I quite enjoyed it!
After the Chester Half Marathon, my parents treated me to a show. That’ll be the day. Quite an interesting show. Great in parts (some good 50s/60s Rock and Roll and likeable performers), OK in other parts, and absolutely terrible in bits (out of tune a couple of times and 2 terrible skits – one awful segment featuring Bill and Ben and one Mick Jagger section which was just embarrassing. The band was great for most of it, although it was a bit pub band ish in parts.
But the crowd loved it.
And many seem to go to see this tour every time it’s in town. 700 odd tickets at £25 plus merc is quite a nice income if you are performing 5 times a week.
Llandudno was looking good though.
And I can understand the harp. But what is the tea party scene for?
We had a fun day at Madeline’s Christening (despite almost arriving late)
There were some staged photographs.
Some cake
Mummy and Daddy
Some family.
What is Alan thinking?
Paul waved some paper. Then pretended to cut a cake.
And I let George take a few photos.
I drank all the wine.
