World News update

Dear George,

So here is the news in brief for the last few weeks. I’ve just picked out the important stuff for your education/entertainment

• The UK voted NO to change the voting system.

• Navy SEALS shot and killed Osama Bin Laden and already conspiracy theorist are saying it didn’t happen

• The has been boy band BLUE represented the UK in the Eurovision song contest and JEDWOOD represented Ireland! We didn’t win but we didn’t do too badly for a change…it was won by Azerbaijan!

• The Queen went to Ireland and visited the Guinness Warehouse BUT didn’t partake in any of the black creamy goodness…and as I type this the President Obama is there and will be coming over to England in a few days.

• A report has been published that claims there are 40 new “legal highs” in Europe

• That blinking Iceland ash cloud is causing havoc for people flying into the UK

• The papers were saying that Ryan Giggs was going to sue twitter because people had been tweeting him in relation to an affair he’d had with an ex-big brother contestant…this is a story that will run forever it would seem.

So that’s the general jist of the news, as for me it’s been busy. The show is coming off in just over a month and there’s a lot to do. We’ll be dark for 2 months after that…and when I say dark I don’t mean for 2 months we’ll all be walking around the theatre blacked-up doing jazz hands! Not sure what the next show is just yet but the rumour is it’s a play based on the movie ‘Cool hand Luke’. If you get chance to watch it do because it’s an awesome film. In one scene the guy “Luke” bets he can eat 50 hard-boiled eggs in a row. I’ll be interested to see how that is done on stage.

It was Sophie’s birthday last week. I cooked her dinner and made a chocolate cake from scratch…yeah look impressed! Today is Laura’s birthday (you remember her, right?) I bought her some perfume “Devil woman” by Cliff Richard, I know what a woman wants.

I’ll sign off for now, I need o get back to editing and uploading files of these pod casts.

Take care buddy
Yours
Little Dave
