A wonderful sister!

So my lovely sister's surprise was taking me to see the most excellent musical Wicked! I had an amazing time - we went for dinner first and she had also roped in my friend Rebecca who was there to meet us at the restaurant.

I would urge everyone to go and see Wicked - the story of what went on pre-Dorothy in the Land of Oz. The songs are brilliant and the cast are just perfect - see the synopsis and some pics below.

Based on the acclaimed novel by Gregory Maguire WICKED tells the incredible untold story of an unlikely but profound friendship between two girls who first meet as sorcery students. Their extraordinary adventures in Oz will ultimately see them fulfil their destinies as Glinda The Good and the Wicked Witch of the West.
Experience this unforgettable, award-winning musical and discover that you’ve not been told the whole story about the land of Oz…

Surprise, Surprise

My sister has turned all Cilla Black on me and has arranged something special for me tonight but shhhhhh it is all a big secret! She is picking me up from t'orrifice at 6pm sharp but I have no idea where we are off to! A magical mystery tour - how thrilling!

I will reveal all (not in that way!) tomorrow.

Wish me luck!

MISI - Make it Sell it

Have just joined this fabulous new site and wanted to share it! It is a site to find loads of home grown Brits making handmade goods - jewellery, knits, pottery, papercrafts etc - you name it. There is some mighty big talent on there and as all prices are in £ it takes a bit of the pain of conversion out for all you current Etsy shoppers.

Check it out - it the current climate it really makes sense to buy handmade as you know you are going to get a competitive price for a really thoughtful and unique item.
