Fame



My Mother and her friend Pat arrived from Bournemouth this evening. They came with Pat's daughter, Mandy and her husband on the aeroplane from Bournemouth Airport, landed at Glasgow - Prestwick Airport and took a hire car across to Edinburgh. They were all tired and had the rats.

I cheered Mum and Pat up with mince and tatties and a big portion of Dorset apple cake which I made this afternoon. Food always brings a smile to Mummy's face.

We're hoping to see Mandy's son, Nick, in Fame - The Musical tomorrow evening. Sadly, he's really ill with a chest infection. Looks like we'll miss out.

C'est la vie, dear reader.

Still, we'll excite ourselves with a trip to see The Royal Yacht Britannia tomorrow. I'm quite eager to see where the Queen did a piddle. The word on the street, though, my little maid, is that the Queen has never and will never say piddle. No. She says slash.

You know, I think that even I would pull over to watch a queen take a piddle.....Yes, I'm pretty sure I would.

does the queen really piddle? ...is that because she had tea with helen mirren?!?!? ...I knew no good would come of that meeting!
