ACT-1 CINDERELLA, ACTION

Less than two weeks to go till "SAINTS" VIP night. Yes the fixtures fittings and decor are dazzling, yes the chef is chomping at the bit to tantalize our taste buds. Manager's waiting to quench your thirst with their exotic list of cocktails.

Yet the big clean/tidy/dust/ excess grout/rubbish, clear up needs to take place. I will of course be participating, yellow rubber gloves in place, my wheelchair will be strategically placed upstairs where the loos/office/staffroom are (I know my place) organising and participating in the task of getting it spic & span to my/Nats standards.

The staff are being bought in a week early to take part in this presentation task. I think this is a good objective, if they are part of the clearing up strategy, maybe just maybe it will be a level they would like to maintain...

So my lovely friends, if I am absent for a few days from your comments box, please show me some empathy. Think of me as poor Cinderella, with yellow rubber gloves on, toiling and scrubbing to help make Prince Charmings dream come true. (Who at this point looks completely frazzled. Bless) .........

I know I will be more of a vocal control on the actual scrubbing etc (yet you know if I could get down on my knees I'd be there), but I have to share this part of the project, not just the highlights of the VIP nights. So, wish us luck and if you see an odd silver slipper about, send it this way......


An open space in a foreign place, beach or poolside the moment was ours. Not the most dynamic of tunes you my think, yet it bought all of these wonderful memories back to me, so its one more to take its place in my archives.
