Still up there somewhere with the Rocket Man

Well, it's Thursday, and I'm still grinnning!!

Elton John was absolutely brilliant. We had fantastic seats, and it was a warm summers evening just perfect for listening to live music outdoors! Our lovely friends took the girls to their house overnight, so we had a whole evening together, out, with no worries about getting home for the babysitters: bliss. What price that freedom eh?

Elton started with 'Benny and the Jets', and then played pretty much every one of my favourite songs: Philadelphia Freedom, Daniel, I'm Still Standing, and loads more. He was on stage for 2 1/4 hours, and boy can he really belt them out! . Actually, between you and I, I was quite overcome with emotion: the realisation that I was listening to what has formed the background soundtrack to my entire life to date, live, right in front of me brought a tear to my eye (thank goodness for those sunglasses I was wearing!).

Not a night to be forgotten in a hurry, that's for sure!

The scrapbook layout should be interesting too: a couple of rubbish photos taken with my camera phone (yes, I was the ONLY person in the entire stadium who actually bothered to read the 'no cameras' notice, what a wally!), and probably the most emotional journalling that I will have attempted to date. Oh, and some rather fabulous tickets. Watch this space!

Saturdays Night's All Right For...........

....going to see Elton John, no less!

I found out this afternoon that I won a staff draw for 2 free tickets to see Sir Elton in all his sparkly glory tomorrow night at Oxford!!! How excited am I? Almost speechless, LOL.

Kassam Stadium, here we come!!

It's all Chrissie's fault!

Aha, a learning curve indeed: I have worked out (albeit by accident and a bit of button pushing) how to link to another Blog. Life Is Scrap is Chrissie's Blog, and so if I am boring the pants off you, you can blame her ;) (Or just go and read hers instead, it's way more interesting!).

Why am I here?.....

No, I don't mean I am pondering my very existence: merely wondering how I of all people ended up with a Blog.

It's all Chrissie's fault really. She has an interesting blog, full of witty observations, gorgeous pictures, and the most brilliant scrapbook layouts. I stop by every now and then to oooh and aah at her creativity, and today thought I would post a comment. Wrong! You need to be a bona fide Blogger to post comments, so you do.

So, here I am. And, can I remember what little gem I was planning to post on Chrissie's blog in the first place?? Nope, not a flipping clue.

Honestly, you just can't get the staff.

Good Golly Miss Molly

Ha ha! Never thought I'd start a blog: I mean, who on earth would want to read it???

Okay, well since you are here, obviously someone does!

I had better start thinking of interesting things to post then. Hmm, lets see....no, I'll do it later. A Skoda-full of Brownies to collect first.

Later!
