The Goodies came to Bradford... it was the show that started life in Australia, of reminiscences and clips; it was a bit short and most of the clips were from episodes that are on the DVDs- it would have been nice to have seen more obscure ones, like the one from Timita. That said, it was a really fun, pleasant evening- Graeme's Footlights audition and a swanee-kazoo duet were my favourite bits, (oh, and Wild Thing- one sparkly jacket and one ukelele...) but it was all well put together and Tim & Graeme have such a rapport, it's always nice to see them working.

Bought a two-metre length of dowel today. (It's bound to come in handy sometime.) It was fairly amusing wandering round other shops with it, like a tour guide.
Spring! Sun! Flowers! Lovely, it is, and what better way can there be to celebrate the coming of new life than by boiling eggs? And then decorating them in a hurried, the-dye-in-the-water-didn't-take sort of way? Have also been doing much washing-up and making chocolate eggs- these two activites may be slightly connected- and burning porridge and helping shift a cupboard and talking about steam trains and buying mousetraps and engaging in many other interesting aspects of life in a country town.

They firmly said not! It was on the whatnot, the tape that plays as you leave the theatre.

Ah, I've only got the "best of" CD that came out recently... *exits, humming "Cricklewood"*

To quote from the lyric sheet, "By all means lock the door and do the movements, but for heaven's sake don't let anyone see you..."

Which goes about triple for the Funky Gibbon, of course. (Or, as one of the photos in the programme has it, "the Extremely Camp Gibbon".)
