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.

I miss my daughter and she will be 21 years old on 19th of April and I will miss it, but she is happy she has her own space back in Glasgow.

There were Morris dancers in Birmingham; honestly a bunch of strangely dressed men with bells on their toes waving hankies at each other…gay isn’t even the best word to describe it all.

The Morris Dancing Annual Event was on and there were at least 200 dancers of all shapes and sizes yet none of them black or Asian which amazed me as the majority of people watching the show in Birmingham were of some ethnic minority!

I wondered what they made of the skippy- happy -clappy -hanky waving men with flowers on their heads brandishing short ribbon clad sticks at their opposite dance partner.

I cant really talk being Scottish we have men dressed in skirts tiptoeing over a pair of swords.

So I am back in Chelsea, husband has gone off to forage for food…or go downstairs to the Supermarket next door to us and I am going to watch 13 episodes of a TV series that I am reviewing on a radio show tomorrow…I need more time!
