After a weekend of messing about on boats I’m back on the road again singing for my supper but not before I sort out all my paper work. This week I have been able to fill some important dates including new years eve so this year I will be in London performing at a very smart Mayfair hotel – so can’t wait!
Today I was playing for a Synagogue in Edgeware with my 1940s “Don’t Sit Under the Apple Tree” show and tomorrow I’m in Peterbough doing the same again with it being VJ Day. I tried out one of my new songs today “Hands Knees and Boomps a Daisy” an odd choice for a 1940s”Don’t Sit Under the Apple Tree” show you might be thinking but actully it worked rather well. As all you anoraks out there will know it’s retro spective. Although it speaks about the 1890s and bustles it was in fact written in 1939 and from the film Band Waggon with Arthur Askey and Richard Murdoch. I have to say this song is very me – it’s a little bit naughty but in a rather sweet way and I can flirt quite shamefully while singing it. Speaking of which I really must sort out a bustle as I really want one! I just have to track down the right silk – yes I’ve decided my bustle must be silk!
We’ll that’s about all my news for now. I have a busy weekend planed with a Pearly Queen Show booked in on Saturday before I change and become a WAAF and then  head off to Shuttleworth for the Flying Proms.
Thanks for following and Toodle Pip! 😉
