ROX Music & Arts

I have recently become a member of the ROX Music & Arts Charity which has been involved for 20 years in bringing Music and Arts to the local community in Bognor Regis. ROX aims to give young Performance Artists - Musicians, Actors, Comedians, Poets, Photographers, Painters, Sculptors etc etc a helping hand in developing their individual talent! ROX works in conjunction with West Sussex County Council, Butlins Bognor Regis, University of Chichester, Local Businesses etc and I feel privileged to be a small part of the organisation.

EARLS COURT

I am appearing on the BOOK THE ACT stand at the National Wedding Exhibition at Earls Court this weekend! I absolutely love being MC/Compere at weddings - it's the best fun!!! I help things run according to plan and have a great laugh with the guests at the same time!!!

Hobbs 2010

Just heard today that Hobbs Farm 2010 in aid of 4SIGHT beat last year's total by raising a massive £21,000!!!! Great weekend, great music, great fun and great audiences!!

HOBB'S FARM 2010

Just back from Saturday at Hobb's 3-day music festival in aid of 4SIGHT - the West Sussex Association for the Blind - Hobb's is the South East's best kept secret!!! 20 music acts, Rock, Folk, Indie, Country, Pop, House??! You name it and the best atmosphere you can ever imagine!! The most fun you can have with your clothes off!! (Is that right?...it looks wrong to me...) Anyway - I'm back there tomorrow A.M. as MC so up the wooden hills for me!!

LAUGHTER!!

I've been thinkin' about Laughter!! - I suppose it's just the opposite of sadness! Both produce tears after all. There is such a fine line between them though eh? I have been analysing Laughter! It releases so much pent-up energy that you can hear an audience actually clearing their lungs and coughing! I think it has got to be the pinnacle of positive energy as far as humans are concerned!!! PLUS... it helps us to put our troubles and worries in perspective!! I love it when my Children take the piss out of me!!! It reminds me not to take things too seriously! Did you hear about the Vegetarian that died......there was a big turnup (turnip-lol!) at his funeral!! hahahahahah

United Response

Thursday 5th Aug - I spent a wonderful 3 hours with the Clients and the Staff and Carers of United Response - the Charity closest to my heart! - (click on link for further info) - they care for People with learning difficulties, mental health needs and physical disabilities in England and Wales. If SUE, VICKY, KEITH and every single one of the care assistants could be cloned and spread throughout the world their Love and Caring nature would cure everything! PLUS....They love life and especially LAUGHTER!!! The Best Medicine!

The Rob Brydon Show

Last night I played a (small) part in the new Rob Brydon Show - showing from 17th September,Fridays,BBC2,10.00pm. We filmed the final episode of the six-part run, featuring clips from the series, Special Guests and a shedload of laughs!! Amazing!! Rob's impression of Radio 2 Legend KEN BRUCE was brilliant! If you want to see more click on the link! Rob even talked to the audience about this marvellous new invention on the internet......The YOU TUBE!!

Messing with the UNKNOWN!

I paid the price this week of messing about with the unknown! While moving some furniture I managed to rupture my Right Bicep!! (I didn't even realise I had one!! I haven't worked out for years!!) Surgery awaits in the very near future! Isn't life a bowl of fuckin' cherries!

JULY 26th

Well - how the hell are ye? Summer is now officially here - the English schools are shut (Scotland's been off for two weeks awready!) Can you remember?? Seven weeks!! of FREEDOM!!! no teachers, no lessons, no homework - unlimited time for play (what the kids now call "hangin' out") we used to play Football...3-and-in, Hit the Bar, six or seven a side - with a "Backy and" (a defender who doubled as Goalkeeper!)imagine that in South Africa!...The best years of our lives.. BTW ALEX "HURRICANE" HIGGINS - GEORGE BEST has got the Table racked up in Heaven with a couple of large Vodkas on the side just waiting for you! Play On Alex!
