Whose coat is that jacket?
It’s been a busy old week with invitations to sing at a variety of events but the question almost everyone has asked…will you wear the jacket? The second question is…where did you get it?
They think it’s all over…
My friend turned to me at around 60 minutes into the Swansea versus Nottingham Forest game and said, ‘I don’t think there’s much in this game for us, I think I’m going to make an early exit’ I agreed. At 68mins I was thinking this has been a pretty good performance from the Swans against a good Premier League team. Then the magic started happening.
We will probably have 1.6 million people tuning in!!!
This week I was asked to host the BBC Radio 4 Sunday Worship which we recorded at the old Mynyddbach Chapel now known as the Calon Lan Centre. I was once told I should imagine I was talking to just one person. BUT, there’s always that little question at the back of your mind…’I wonder how many people are actually tuned in to the show?’ How about 1.6 Million!
The Power of Social Media
Recently I have experienced the positive and negative effects of Social Media. Last Sunday I posted a picture of me with Rob Brydon on the Mumbles Prom. Its had over 300,000 views!
When Worlds Collide
It all seemed a little surreal. Here was Esme Allchurch, a lady in her 90’s, widow of Ivor the Golden Boy of the 1958 Wales World Cup team, being cuddled by 6 foot something Cordell Broadus. Cordell, AKA Lil Snoop, Snoop Dogg’s son. What’s more Cordell seemed more bowled over by the meeting than she did!!!
You Look Like You’re Having A Baby!
Most Saturday mornings I take my granddaughter out for breakfast. At 6 years of age she has a unique take on life. She’d had a pretty good morning fleecing her grandfather and we were on the way home when she turned to me and said, ‘Baba, it looks as if you are going to have a baby.’
Here we go, here we go, here we go…
Today is the day. I know Swansea started their Championship season last weekend away at Middlesbrough. and I know we’ve had a 2 games at the Swansea.com stadium, a friendly against French Lige 1 side Lorient and a cup match last Tuesday against EFL League 2 side Crawley, but today is the day the season becomes real.
And now I’m a…Cartoon!
These days it’s hard to believe what you see. Is Snoop Dogg really eating a Joe’s Ice Cream…has Mal Pope really become…a cartoon!!!
Nearing Journey’s End
I feel I am coming to an end of a journey that in truth I would never have wanted to take. On Tuesday morning I joined with a whole host of supporters including members of the Swansea Bay Health Board, business sponsors and grateful families to mark the opening of Cwtsh Clos.
National All or Nothing Day.
So many times in my own life I have found myself at one of these moments where the safe option is the wise option, but I’ve still decided to bet the house on some crazy scheme or another.
