Baby Abi and her visit to Paradise…
I went to visit my great niece Abi; she is three and half years old now and is funnier by the minute. Abi has all the DNA of my performing gene and loves nothing better than getting on her wee ‘stage’ or footstool that she carries around and does a show for us. This...
Back Home and Yes I know I am late with this blog…
Glasgow is rainy and cold and my flip flops aren’t working well in the weather. Ashley was so happy to see us and looks great! She has a wonderful haircut and looks even more beautiful since we last saw her. Our flat has suspicious marks here and there, like in the toilet...
Whitstable and Beyond…
Sorry I have been late with the blog again! I write a weekly column for the Scotsman and invariably it is a page and takes up heaps of my time. I worry that my blog is suffering although being a ‘proper journalist’ is a real job and being a blogger is just fun – I have a huge...
Today My Daughter Ashley is 21 years old…
I really cannot believe she is that old and it makes me quite sentimental. Her dad and I spoke to her minutes after midnight as she is in Glasgow and we are still in London . I miss her and cried as I heard her voice and immediately imagined her as a wee three year old with bunches in...

What a time it’s been…
I am still in London ; I was in Birmingham over the weekend doing Jongleurs. I left husband in the fancy apartment in Chelsea , there was no reason he should have to come up to Birmingham with me and Ashley is still in Glasgow . I really no longer know where home is....
Too Much Sun…
I can’t believe that London was so cold when I first arrived that I had to buy a sheepskin jacket, now it’s too hot I had to go buy flip flops…that hurt my wee scabby Scottish feet. Bring on global warming… The gigs are going well and I am enjoying travelling all over...
Tube tales
I am still in London and will be for a while. I am missing Ashley my daughter so much and yesterday she called and told me she had all her hair cut into a mullet! What the fuck is that? My beautiful girl had thick long dark amazing hair down her back…what has she done? On...
Falling Down…
Am I the only person in the world who bought MBT trainers that hates them? MBT trainers are these weird curved sole shoes that apparently make you walk like a barefoot Masia Warrior. It is supposed to make you feel better and your legs get more exercise…I walk like a drunken heroin...
Tales from London…
“There is a Scottish pub in Fulham, lets go round and watch the Celtic match” Husband suggested as we walked through Chelsea in the sunshine. “I hate football pubs and hate anything Scottish in another country, it’s all too patriotic for me” I moaned. So we went there as...
Life in Sunny London…
London is cold and bright, I am tired and husband is so bloody efficient that I may enter him (not physically) but for Husband of the Week. He has packed, moved and organised our trip to London . We are down for three weeks and I have gigs all over the south...
