boots blog contd

Jean bought the boots at the bottom of Merthyr.  They were only £5!!! Sara McGaughey said they almost look expensive and I know what she means.  Have any of you seen the "Who wants to be a billionaire' show.  I feel like a russian nouveau riche billionaire in my fab blingy billionaire red boots.  Well my chracter Yvette does :-)

Boots blog

I went to my friend Sharon's cafe at Merthyr bus station and she made me double egg and chips and a cup of tea, fantastic.  We walked back to the labour club together so Sharon could pick up some flyers to put in the cafe.  Everyone loves Yvettes boots…

Merthyr Courage

I don't believe it, I just did my first 'scenette' OFF SCRIPT infront of Nicola Reynolds and Emily Butler.  I tried to forget they were there.  I did this by shutting my eyes which unfortunately resulted in me bumping into the props and set.

Scenes 3C,3D,4,8 and 9

I'm in 3 of the 4.  I sail in on a Tesco trolley in one of them like Titanic.  Why the hell did I eat so much quinoa mix and morrocan lamb?  I must have gone into starvation mode and now I've eaten about 700 calories in one hit-carb coma.

A long day, well worth it

I'm very lucky with the parking in Merthyr because although its only £3.50 for the WHOLE day,  I have one of my lovely  cousins living close to Merthyr labour club and he leaves me park on his drive.  Sometimes Ri Richards has a lift with me, sometimes Nicola Reynolds and sometimes Gaynor Morgan Rees.  We pile out of or into the car and take a lovely walk under the bridge, past Harps, the funeral directors, and we are there at the labour club.  So far it hasn't rained.  We are loving it.…
