yes we are off to see Elton John
Elton John Elton John Elton John. Just practising as we are off to see Elton John tonight. I say tonight. The meet up is 3pm in the Prince of Wales. Taxi picking us up from there at 3.45. Bar opens at Showground 4pm. Food at 5pm. Concert starts at 7pm.
It occurred to me that Elton’s own prep for the gig might be somewhat different to ours. A light salad maybe compared with our full blown eating and drinking fest. Perhaps I’m wrong.
There is news today. Anne was called by BBC Radio 2 and asked if she could come on the Jeremy vine show to talk about Street Parties for the Queen’s 90th birthday. The was lined up by a certain son we know who works at the Beeb. Anne is organising the Curle Ave party.
I switched the radio on after being in Waitrose and hey presto on she came talking to Jezzer. She was very impressive pair play. I have the recording if anyone wants to hear it. Message me 🙂
After Waitrose I swung by the Phone Doctor in the Tesco carpark to enquire as to the cost of replacing the smashed back on my Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge. It only lasted a couple of weeks before I dropped it in the rain on day 1 of the coast to coast walk. The phone Doctor quote £89. I can get it done on the Lloyds Bank insurance for fifty quid so I’ve just set that in motion.
It’s a shame not to get it done because the phone is a brilliant device which you’d expect for the money (£630 inc payg sim which I didn’t need).
Joe has now finished his exams and will be in Wetherspoons in Newcastle as I write.
The other news is that the guys coming to do our drive (block paving) turned up this lunchtime to break up some of the tarmac. Wasn’t expecting them but they were only there to check on how easy it was going to be. They were gone within 15 mins. See featured image.
Back in the pool this morning too. Good eh?
