the happy little world of miss ktp!

A couple of weekends ago I went to a jive dance weekender in skegness at the butlins there. Now this was the weekends of many firsts: 1. I’d never been to skeggy, believe it or not I’m from the midlands & never been there! 2. I’d never been to a butlins. 3. I’d never been on a dance weekender. So it was bound to be good from the start! We (lou, max, teddy & I) all met at kings cross & caught 2 trains to skeggy. We finally arrived about 6pm & checked into our 4 person chalet which was brilliant. Had a spot of dinner & headed off to 1 of the 2 dancefloors that were there especially for us. The challet - teddy, me, lou & max In total I think there were about 1,000 people there all ready to jive, west coast swing & blues their socks off! We were then joined by 4 more people from jivenation - gotham, ellie, courtney & neil. We started dancing at 11pm Friday night & finished 5am Monday morning with very little sleep in between. There were classes ...

Well my elephant hunt is over. There were 258 statues all around london & today they are taken down, given a fresh lick of paint & then auctioned off for the 'elephant family' charity. Will miss wandering aound the city & spotting them. I wanted to find them all but what with moving house & all i was left about 60 short. Not bad i guess! They were all on display in westfield shopping centre (see photo) & at the royal hospital chelsea. I managed to get to westfield last night but couldn't make it to chelsea. Boo! Ah well bring on the next set of things to get excited about & i'll hunt them out! Yay! So much has been happening recently & will blog about them when i get a moment in my hectic schedule! :-p but all in all everythin'g hunky dory! X x x

I'm sitting on Finsbury Park along with 40,000 other people! No it's not the case of Brits all crowding out onto the 1st bit of grass they see when the sun comes out it's cos we're at the victory party to end all victory parties! When Rage Against The Machine got the chrimbo no1 beating x-factor (the 1st time in 5 yrs i think) they said they'd do a free thank you gig for the fans & that's where we are! It's hopefully gonna be a pretty ace gig! Bring it on! ********** Turns out there's no internet connection to post this, chuh it's the 21st century people! :-p the gig was ace! My throat's pretty sore & my knees hurt but was worth it! Sitting on the tube with a big grin on my face! When you say jump i say how high?! Oh & the big news is we've moved! Adam & I are now home owners! It's been pretty hectic & will post more about it later. But it's pretty fun playing house! X x x
