Testing......have they gone....


yup...

Thanks Jackie, going to lose the sparkly bits because its not Christmas anymore......x

I remember when I was about 5, going to the church hall of our local church in London and seeing a neighbour's daughter up on the stage......afterwards they were all saying how well she had done, and I remember feeling sorry for her sister because nobody said anything to her.......so I said.....you were good too (or something like that).......needless to say she was not in the play.........cringe....

I remeber at my daughters nursey one......everyone was laughing in the right place and one 3 year old got very annoyed whist he was performing and shouted that everyone shut up.....pmsl...

my friends little grandson ,shouted( after a lovely nat play at church) " That was a load of rubbish!!"

so those are your sparkly bits Sally
Love Jackie

I was in the choir, so just got to sing......no platform for my obvious theatrical ambitions.......great loss to the nation....

One time I did get on stage, we were doing a black and white minstrels type show......Swing Low Sweet Chariot and other negro spirituals......we had to sing Oh dem Golden Slippers......and I was the one in Golden Slippers.......a pair of plimsolls painted yellow......my claim to fame....

when i was 7 i was given the part of mary, the day before i fell and broke my leg
when i told oh about it he said someone was trying to tell me something
wonder what he meant lol
Love Jackie

I just love Helens post on this I would of given a kidney ....pmsl...

Hello Mick the second ? Was that Herard and the other king Jesus ?

In 1958 I played the second king - thats nearly half a century ago!! xxxx Mick

I am sure it wasnt and we was all like that after the birth of our babies I am sure people understood......xx

Hayley,
I didn't just have tears running down my face, I was sobbing and shaking. I was so embrassed. I couldn't stop myself.

My youngest's is at the church, she's been telling me she's going to John's church, as she apparently knows St John well.
I have to stop myself filling up too.
They do a mothers day service and that's a real tear jerker.

Awww god Helen we all did that....every year my oh would say have you got your tissues you know what your like.....lol As my kids went to a church school and we was expected to attend the evening carol service which you would make a sure bet it was the coldest night of the year ...funny I do miss them times and the photos I took ...you cant do that now...lol

I remember my eldest's daughter's 1st Nativity, she was the Angel Gaberial and had a lovely golden dress and had to sing. I had just had youngest daughter 10 days before and my hormones were up the spout. I was so proud of her, she sang the first verse of Away in a manger all by herself and the tears were rolling down my face. Hubby was in the Army at the time and I was sat on the front row next to the commanding officers wife and she kept passing me tissues.

Helen

funny enough that year school finsihed on the 21st Dec....by tea time 22nd I started in labour and she was born the early hours on the 23 rd.....lol....

When I went to big school we did different plays normally written by the drama and music teachers I always got a singing part ( if I was well behaved enough) and in my last year got the lead part of a modern version of Alice in Wonderland with a difference...lol
