Glad All Over

This was to be the title for the last post but I advertised the Three Horseshoes this Wednesday.

This title is courtesy of the Dave Clark Five and because I heard it at football last Tuesday. I went to Swindon to watch my team playing them in the Mickey Mouse Cup; it is a bizarre competition and one my club have used to blood youth team players and have been fined for it despite beating teams from the division above. Every time Swindon scored the above title was blasted out over the P.A. , when we scored nothing was played! We helpfully sang “Glad All Over” for them. I am now going to show my prejudice and say I hate football clubs manufacturing music to celebrate a goal bit like I detest  drums at games! Modern Football -Bah Humbug!!!!! Did see a super game on Saturday that had everything apart from us winning (it was a draw).

I had a busy week last week working in an Infant School in Birmingham all day Wednesday and telling Christmas Stories at Wick Court on Thursday, as well as my normal commitments. I also went to a fascinating talk on Buzzards, it did show that since persecution had been stopped their numbers have soared. One day perhaps land owners of Grouse Moors and Pheasant shoots will leave the Hen Harrier alone so we might see it breed in England in the future.

I have just been telling stories at the Village Primary School and also corny Christmas jokes. The children told me some great ones as well. I have one more Gig for young people at Wick Court on Thursday.

Don’t forget anyone reading this, that on Wednesday at 8 p.m. my Book Club are putting on our Christmas Extravaganza in the Three Horseshoes Frampton which includes songs, poems and I will be doing a story. It will be good old fashioned fun and it is free! So come along and join us. It is free!!!!!!!!
