Phew.
God is back in his heaven and all is right with the world.
I have just spent an amazing three days at the gorgeous Tofte Manor.
I was working as a butler for the modern American pop combo, "Journey".
It was fabulous.
Firstly, they were a delightful group of people, some of whom have been involved in the rock business for a long, long time. They are, or have been friendly with some of the greats of the rock world - Jeff Beck and John Entwistle just to name a couple. One of them took his son off to hear Clapton play with Stevie Winwood at the Albert Hall - because he knew him! How cool is that?
They were warm and generous-spirited. They left Bedfordshire today to go to the Royal Garden Hotel in Kensington (I was Toastmaster at a wedding there last year) and they are playing Wembley on Saturday and then the NEC in Birmingham on Sunday. I am going to be there on Sunday with Jack with VIP tickets. Top banana.
Even better news is that more work has come through this already. I'm buttling again at Tofte Manor in a couple of week's time. This time on a corporate "do" for Rolls Royce. This could be a whole new career opening up in front of me.
Talking of careers...... The red coat is on again this weekend for the wedding of Ed and Katy.
More about this and also the NEC concert in next week's missive.
Gentle reader, live long and be Toastmastered.
