Well what a hectic start to the week! Monday’s gig in NWLondon was a long day. Harlesden is a delightful school with a wonderful caring ethos and chimes with my educational philosophy. Performing nine stories to eight different age groups tests your resources! Despite being tired at the end of the day I came away with a lovely feeling thanks to the warmth of Harlesden.

Had a great bird watch with the children at Wick Court yesterday. Today we have celebrated Clare’s birthday in some style! We have had a succession of visitors calling- plumber, gardener and boiler man. We then had an early meal with the two young lads we are looking after. I am blogging from their house, they are now asleep!

More Story Telling Thursday and Friday!
