Despite the heavy snowfall and dodgy driving conditions I journeyed to Aylesbury to see a close friend and work. The work was ok...less said the better to be honest. Admittedly most of my Aylesbury trip was spent drinking Champagne Sangria and rehearsing my newest act to debut at Vivid Soda on the Sunday. To say I was bricking it would be an understatement. I was however put at easy after seeing the new custom corset design and created exclusively for me by Lynn of Vintage Lynndy Loo. It a creation to be hold. With the added splendour of my beautiful star encrusted bustle and panties from Lucy at Burldoir I knew the act would be beautiful visually even if anything went wrong.
Champagne Sangria...made by me!
Vivid Soda is a show I have done a few times and have always performed to a great crowd and this night was no different. Each performer bought something new and exciting: Banbury Cross was her ever beautiful self performing a near nude fan dance and her champagne striptease; there was my beautiful bellydancer Luli Blue who performed a belly dance and a clock work doll act (FABULOUS!); there was the stunning Fifi Fatale who wowed the crowd with both routines: a strip tease and a beautiful art deco inspired routine; Warren Speed entertained as both Charlie Chaplin and then in a double act with the gorgeous, stunning Kiki Kaboom to perform a chav act to end all shows! It bought the house down! Plus a local lady making her debut! She went down very well amongst the crowd. I have to admit I forgot her full name but it does translate as Madam Naughty. Tee hee! Oh and there was me!
Whilst the show was fabulous to say the least and James Thorpe captured some fantastic images of us all....it was two particular audience members who stole my heart for the night. I wont spill names due to reasons that will be clear. Both were clearly in love with one another but it wasnt that that made my heart break. The woman informed me she had breast cancer. I was shell shocked to say the least I mean she looked healthy and vibrant...ok so not all people are sick, pale and withering but she seemed genuinely chuffed with life...she was smiling as she FINALLY gets to have massive breasts! (LOL her words!) she was excited that after the surgery she could have implants. Her sunny outlook on the whole situation made me realise this disease isnt all doom and gloom and has some positive outcomes....for her at least. Her husband seemed immensely proud of her.... I nearly cried like a soppy bugger especially when I learnt he was off to Afghanistan soon. So instead of snotting everywhere we danced and posed for photos together.
A truelly fantastic weekend of all sorts of reasons.
Anyway....this may be my last blog for a while for tomorrow I board a plane to Australia to visit my family do some sightseeing and some work things...cant wait! I may be able to get online though for a bit....
Love
