Diary of a Pilates Instructor...Celebrity catch up!

Well, it's been a busy few weeks and months of theatre and gigs.

Here's just a few of them...🤣

It was great to see the fabulous Ralf Little in John Le Carré's 'The Spy who Came in from the Cold' at the Arts Theatre Cambridge back in August. His co-star Gráinne Dromgoole too. Just terrific!

Then fresh back from Greece 🇬🇷earlier this month Comedian friend, the very clever and hugely funny Andrew Watts at a gig in South Cambridge.

Then back to Cambridge recently to see the brilliant Comedian, Mark Simmons at the Cambridge Junction and topped off last night with the superb and hilarious The Ouse Valley Singles Club gig, right here in Somersham at the Centurion Club Somersham!

Love live entertainment. It's just the best. Such talented people. ❤️🙏🏼🌟

Well on 18 August, we said our final goodbyes to my dear Nanny.

It was so very, very hard to say our final goodbyes to her that day but we all gathered to show our respects to an amazing woman who lived an amazing long life. Her service was beautiful, it went so smoothly & incredibly well.

My Dad, me, Francis & my brother carried her in to 'Adagio for Strings'...& as my Dad said to her it was an honour to carry her, as she had carried each one of us.

My brother read so the powerful & emotional 'Miss Me but Let Me Go' & my Dad spoke the most lovely, heartfelt & historical eulogy & then I spoke mine.

I'm so pleased to have been able to deliver it; especially the final paragraphs, which are always the toughest to say out loud, as it's the final goodbye & so much love expressed for her.

We sang 'In Heavenly Love Abiding' and 'The Lord is my Shepherd' all as per Nanny's wishes.

Photos of her 102 years of life were shown on the screens & what I didn't know until Francis told me later, was that as we were speaking at the lectern, the photos matched what was being said.

She exited to 'Nimrod', another hugely powerful piece of music.

We really did give her the best send off & sure celebrated her life. I know she'd have been pleased with what was arranged....in fact I know she was. She told me. ✨My Mum and Dad did brilliantly well to organise everything so grateful thanks to them both. It all came together beautifully for her.

So, as I said in my eulogy, this really is the end of an incredible era. I already miss her so much and my heart is broken that she's gone ....but I know Nanny....we have to let you go.

So, be with Grandad, ride on his motorbike again, drive along the country roads, have fun at the lidos and enjoy a paddle in the sea together.

Nanny, you'll forever be with me and I with you. We promised each other this. I love you with all my heart and thank you for teaching me so much. Rest peacefully. All my love.

"Ni night Nanny......God Bless". 🕊️
