It was good for me to get away this weekend and I was really pleased with the way the show went on Saturday. One never quite knows with family gatherings if 40s music is going to be to everyones taste but everything went really well and I had the pleasure of working with a new sound engineer Stefen who did me proud. So thank-you Stefen great job! I was pleased I took my bigger speakers even though it was a bit of a squosh in my car but we really did need them so well planned I think!
Ofcourse Saturday was a bit of a funny day for me as it should have been my Wedding Day. I did have a quiet moment at 4pm when I would have been walking down the isle but some things are just not to be I guess!
Still I don’t want to go on about that as there are so many things I want to plan for and do. Today I took abit of time out to visit Lavenham which if you know your towns you will know it’s the sort of place where you might exspect William Shakespere to pop out and meet you. Not a straight building to be seen anywhere which is just wonderful. I had lunch in a lovely little tea room called “Tickled Pink” where I got chatting to a real Suffolk character. This gentleman rather reminded me of my grandfather as he had a real head of hair just like my grandfather John. Sadly he died when I was only 3 but I remember him as having a wicked twinkle just like this gentleman who was enjoying telling me about having 4 girlfriends all on the go dispite being 83, Twinkle twinkle!
Next weekend I shall be all Victorian as I head to The Isle of Wight for their Victorian event and Tuesday I’ve got a “Hooray for Hollywood” show to do along with a session in the recording studio! So busy busy! Must dash thanks ever-so for dropping in and Toodle Pip!

It’s hard to belive but I should have been getting married tomorrow as the 28th July was surposed to have been my Wedding Day – but then sadly some things are just not to be. When I look back over the last 2 years it has been like a roller coaster. I broke with my management after 14 years and had to start from scratch. All I had was my music, costumes and talent and I started again re – shooting all my photos and designing a new web-site with my designer. This time I made sure the photos and web name were mine and I’m really proud of the way it’s flurshing as it represents my feedom and me.
Sadly not all has gone well for me over these last 2 years and I’m afraid I got rather cruelly taken advantage of by quite the worst of men. A man I can best describe as a Cad and a Con man. When you really start to look into this mans character it’s quite shocking and I find it hard to belive that anyone can be that wicked. I had a very lucky escape I think and the sad thing is I once held this man in very high regard. We went out together for 3 months and he even proposed marriage to me which I guess was just a funny joke to him, but it wasn’t funny to me! I did truly belive I had found my sole mate but I was very wrong. The two qualities I most look for in a person and espesialy a man are honesty and integraty – this man has neither! Lesson learnt!
I guess deep down we all long to be loved but it’s very difficult for someone like me. I’ve always had a very professional life and it’s hard for anyone outside of show biz to understand. I have to work very hard and even when I’m not singing I’m usaly at my desk doing contracts and answering e-mails. So very little spar time!
I then met David and in the beginning we seemed to want the same things. I am an artist to my core and sadly I don’t think David ever understood that. He never felt I gave him enough time, which I can understand as my job is very demarding. Unlike the Cad David is a good man at heart I think but I’m too wild, I have to run and I have to fly. I exspress myself through the arts and for anyone who has seen me dance you will know what I mean. I am a free spirit and I hate to be like all the others. I could never make David happy I know I couldn’t which was why I had to break off the engagement.
Tomorrow I’m in Bury St Edmunds doing a show which will take my mind off of things but I know it was the right decission and I don’t have any regrets. I hope David can find his match and I’m just sorry I wasn’t right for him! But the show must go on and I must do what I was put on this earth to do and sing!

It’s just a quick blog tonight to say I’ve been doing my “Don’t Sit Under the Apple Tree” show today and my word I don’t think it could have been any hotter. I was performing in Aspley Guise for a luncheon and although I had a 1940s summer dress and hat on it felt as if I was wearing Mink it was that hot. Never the less dispite the heat my show went really well and I was able to meet up with my friend Mike afterwards for tea, which we enjoyed in the garden – wonderful!
Home now – catching up with e-mails and designs. I shall be seeing my web-designer tomorrow and just to let you know we have now got some of the up-dates done to my Biography and Fashion pages. So if you get the chance do click onto those pages to see the up dates. I was also been featured in the Stage newspaper and Best of British magazine this year so if you didn’t get the chance to see the articals do click onto my pages where you can read them.
Must dash now as I have work to do. Thanks for dropping in and do keep Watching. Toodle Pip!

Gosh it’s been so warm today the hottest day this year I belive they were saying on the news so I would have loved a dip in the sea! Instead I’ve been doing “Magic of the Musicals” today in Beconsfield and tomorrow I shall be performing for a rather smart do in Aspley Guise with “Don’t Sit Under the Apple Tree”.
With weather like this who needs to go abroard – I would have loved to have been down on the South Coast in Bexhill at The Del La War, one of my favourite cast lines and Theatres. I’ve played that theatre many times back in the day when I was doing theatre tours!
Well thats about it from me for tonight as I must get on with some paper work – only while I was comming back from Beaconsfield I poped into the Antique center in Wendover and bought the most amazing black velvet 1960s hat. It’s a cross between a tea cosy and a swimming cap and I just love it!
