Another Year.....

Usually at this time of year I get all sentimental and reflective.

This year I'm going to bullet just my best and worst.

2008 BEST

  • Moving to London
  • Marguerite
  • Summer nights in the park
  • Ruthie's "fucking good aim"
  • Taking Lotte to meet Ruthie Henshall
  • Summer holidays and lots of time with Lotte
  • Autumn colours at Wandsworth Common
  • The Carousel tour
  • Our day out in Wimbledon
  • Carousel opening night
  • Sunset Boulevard
  • Stage door moments
  • Hayley and Abi banter
  • New Year with old friends and lots of rose
2008 WORST
  • Working in the restaurant
  • Getting sacked
  • Lack of money
  • Bills
  • Hostel living
  • Mum's wedding
  • Illness
  • Jukebox freakin musicals
So it's all generally quite good, I like where I am, I like what I'm doing and I am so grateful for the kindness everyone has shown me in London.
Let's make this the best year ever :)

My apologies for barging in on your blog, but the Ruthie Henshall fan in me couldn't help but notice some of your pictures and the fact that you're totally IN her dressing room in one of them. That must have been unreal! I would love to hear the story behind that if you're willing to share it with a random fan girl from the US. :o)

Well at least the camera made it in. haha. Cool to hear that you're acquaintances. From the interviews I've seen/read she comes across as a real doll. And I work in theater as a stagehand, so I've encountered quite a few actors who are decidedly NOT dolls. Nice to see that someone of her stature doesn't have the diva attitude to match.
Thanks very much for your reply!
