This is my 1,800th blog post, so I'm celebrating with a song...
I think that's what you call a tough audience. It started well when she turned up with a backing band (well, a rubber band), but from that point onwards, things went downhill faster than Franz Klammer with a tailwind. I had to physically stop her from leaving at one point, and by the end she was resorting to sabotage. Frankly Simon Cowell would have been less critical.
But on the subject of outstanding vocal performances, Lisa and I are going to see Taylor Swift at Wembley Arena tonight. That's if they'll let us in after I asked Ticketmaster to cancel our tickets. We've arranged to meet a friend for dinner at Euston station (which is in the Michelin guide under 'Tyre Fitters'), so that when we're turned away from Wembley, we won't feel we've had a completely wasted journey.
Needless to say, Amelie would love a trip to London to meet the Queen (of country), but after careful consideration, we've decided to leave her in St Leonards with her grandparents. Having seen the way she reacts to a decent bit of singing, we don't want to end up with another Kanye West situation on our hands.
In May & June 2007 my Big Sis travelled across the USA in an attempt to visit all 50 states before going to Australia for a year to fly with the quokkas. I foolishly agreed to give her space on this blog to update family & friends on her efforts to stay alive, so I'd just like to make it clear that posts written in red are by Big Sis, and I hereby distance myself from them. Unless they're good, obviously.
