there are two apples hanging from my tree, swaying in the sunshine. they look like firm, gorgeous rosy butt cheeks!

27th August 2010 bank holiday

hey gorgeous people!

how ya doin? how's your week been? its friday!  yey!  we play LED tomorrow AND hopefully the sun will shine for us all!  

our lovely and fabulous wardrobe lady 'Randa' leaves tomorrow, she's going back to college and we'll all really miss her! but then we have lovely Jill to replace her. she was our wardrobe lady on the 'seventh tree' tour.  

i had lunch with Will today, it was really good to see him and have a  catch up!  after the gig tomorrow i'm gonna go up to the west country to have a weekend just relaxing.  the thing i'm really looking forward to is making a fire! i think i'll stare at it for hours, mmmm i cant wait. it'll feel really weird not having a gig to do or seeing the band for the next week or so though.  i guess the time will pass real quick and there are quite a few things to do to prepare for the autumn shows.  i'm just addicted right now!  

i had a dream about david bowie last night.  i was sitting in my car and he suddenly appeared at the gate so i said 'hello david bowie' and he looked at me as if he was really surprised to see anyone.  he then struck a pose, the sun beamed down on his long dark leather coat and his little round glasses flashed a milky blue.  he spun round and went back indoors.  god knows what thats all about?! it was great to see him though even if it was in dream! hee hee.

xxxxxx love to you and i hope you have a great weekend. alisonx

23rd August 2010 lovely europe!

hey
so, back in london having been around lovely europe and doing the V festival this weekend.  we had a great time at all the gigs even though  the rain came pouring down at  pretty much every festival we went to!   we swam in a lake in switzerland at 'avenches' and had such a laugh in the rain despite it being a bit choppy and a bit chilly.  wow i love how it makes my body feel.  i adore visiting amsterdam,  it's such a gorgeous place to look at and get lost in.  the paradiso is a special venue and we had a great gig there!  thankyou!  my brother came to that one too. 
chatty man alan carr was lovely!!  i've been wandering round soho and the west end today adjusting to being back at home by window shopping, chatting with people in town and catching up with Will.  i had a fantastic massage too which left me pretty spaced out and strangly craving a scone?!  i'm back home now having done the scone and now on the vino!
sweetdreams ,love  xxxx alison
