Around And About

It's been a week of ups and downs - figuratively and literally as I've been up and down the country!

I finally got myself to the fabulous London Wonderground to watch the final show of Tempest Rose's House of Burlesque and it was fabulous! I especially loved Leonie Soprano's 'The Lady Vanishes' act but the whole show was great fun.

On Thursday I went along to Proud City for another finale performance as Ben Brown and Jonathan Finch headed off to Singapore for six months! They went out with a bang though; their double act was truly stunning!

On Friday I took myself off 'oop North for the fabulous Frou Frou Club with Lady Wildflower - it was a great show and it was so lovely to see so many people I rarely get to hang out with!

After spending the night drinking Bucks Fizz and gossiping with Glorian Gray I came back down to London and Proud City for a wonderful Saturday night show with a great line-up.

It's a rare pleasure when I find, after a show, that I have energy to do more than crawl home to bed, so Saturday night was wonderful for all those reasons as we stayed dancing til the wee small hours!

I ended my week in my favourite fashion - with a much needed pyjama day while I worked on a custom Etsy order - ably assisted by a minion!
