Morning cherubs I've got the flu! Boooooooo.......but I'm feeling much better today...everyones got the nasty flu at the mo....I suppose its that post xmas blues thing!!
So what's going on? I've been chillin at home preparing to hit the road in the next few weeks....!! Am dead excited...the band and I r meeting up tomorrow to have a major discussion about how were gonna make this show differ from previous...were taking to the stage for an hour and a half now at each performance so we've really gotta play all the tracks from both the albums! But off course there are some major highlights by way of famous secret special guests! So its gonna be a packed show to watch! Really chuffed how its doing as well....my warm up gig's about sold out and the first gig in dunfermline is about to sell out so happy days!!
So anyhoo I wanted to talk to you about a charity gig I'll be doing on the 24th of feb, its a benefit to raise money for projects in malawi, I'm gonna be doing a free performance to raise awareness of the event which is to take place in glasgow. The former first minister of scotland jack maconell will also be there as he's the new high commissioner of malawi. Jack has done great things for malawi so I'm hoping to talk to him about my project of building a performing arts school out there. Am looking forward to that.
So how'd you all like my picture in drama mag? I can't believe that's me! I had to balance myself up a ladder to take that shot whilst staring directly into the sun!! And the worst part was we shot it on the edge of the river thames and at one point I thought I was a goner!! I thought I was gonna trip on the 50 foot dress and fall in!! So I'm quite chuffed they actually managed to get a good shot out of it!!
Those poor models have to endure quite a bit, I wreckon if I'd been a waif like them I would have been blown right into that river!! Mind you in saying that I am actually now the thinnest I've ever been and I don't know how!! Over the last few months I think the stress of everything has made me not wanna eat and I've lost a stone.....I don't know if I like it though cos I don't feel as strong as I used too....I may. Be thin but I feel weak so take heed young ones being thin is not all its cracked up to be....anyway I'm trying not to let it go too far...my mums totally beside herself with worry but I'm not doing it deliberately.......I've organised this whole tour myself and am dying to get on with my 3rd album plus jake and I moved from london and I had to relocate the cat to ma ma's hoose! Boo! Last year was crazy so I suppose its taken its toll....god this time last year I was in australia...can't believe how time flies. Anyway enough yacking......I've got a busy week ahead rehearsing and recording so see you on the other side.
