Friday Night Fever.
A damp “Hello” to you all,
.
Oh dear me, I shall not be going to the ball after all.
.
There I was, with my vertiginous leopard skin platforms and my satin trousers all dusted off, totally ready to party, but bad weather has cancelled play.
.
My ‘FRIDAY NIGHT FEVER’ concert is now CANCELLED!!!!
It was going to be held tonight at Gibside, the National Trust estate that my friend took me to visit some weeks ago.
The Music Spectacular was set to be headlined by a very popular tribute group called Voulez Vous, who are a well known Abba Tribute Band.
These being ably supported by Ultimate Madness who were going to thrill us all with ‘a marvellous performance of Madness classics’ That’s loads of
Ska to you.
.
Oh Bum, I was really going to love it.
My friend is awfully disappointed too. She has talked about it all week long.
Normally you just go to these things no matter what the weather, this is the UK after all, but the amount of rain falling lately has been unusual and today it has been continuous, so much so that the organisers are probably worrying that the groups will end up electrocuted.
There was going to be an amazing fireworks display as a finale but I doubt possible electrocutions were meant to be a part of it.
.
Well, never mind, I am going to make another delicious Spaghetti Bolognaise instead, along with a decent (relatively speaking) bottle of wine, and then Big H and I can snuggle down with a good movie.
I think that I would enjoy another viewing of ‘Duets’ made in 2000, starring Paul Giamatti, Huey Lewis, Andre Braugher, the pretty Scott Speedman and Gwyneth Paltrow. One of the few films where she does not annoy me, as I am not a great fan of hers.
Or of Glen Close either if it comes to that.
.
Anyway at least Big H will be happy to be served up a proper home cooked, meaty meal.
And so will the crows!
.
Have a fabulous night yourselves. Or at least those of you who do not shrink when exposed to rain.
LOL
