LUCKY GIRL....


I had a lovely surprise last Friday after having a hard week and feeling under the weather with a cold. Joe sent me a gorgeous bouquet of 12 red roses. Absolutely beautiful and they made my week! Thank you!

ABBAMANIA...



Abbamania has been delighting audiences of all ages since it's formation in 1999, selling out UK theatres nationally. In 2002 it played 18 weeks in the Strand Theatre London re-creating the Abba phenomenon for fans from all over the world. This weekend it was in Singapore, for four shows only! Saturday we went along to watch, sing and dance away to all my favourites including, Mamma Mia, Voulez Vous, Dancing Queen, Winner Takes It All, Super Trooper, and many more! It was fab! A great way to spend the afternoon seen as the weather this weekend has been pretty grim. Rain and storms. At least I'm getting myself prepared for what the weather will be like in the UK at Christmas time!

R.I.P BILLY

This morning I received the terrible news that Jen's step-dad Billy had lost his two and a half year battle with cancer. This is the first time in the whole time that I have been away from the UK that I truly wish I was back in the UK to support Jen. Billy put up an amazing fight and was an absolute legend. My thoughts are with not only Jen, but her mum and younger sister Kate. Massive hugs across the miles. R.I.P Billy. Your girls will miss you immensely.
