What a fantastic pod to open the week with, its great to hear you Abi glad you took some time for you to recharge a bit i have to do this often myself.Sounds like you had a fantastic weekend, music is very healing for the soul the universe has been good especially with ur news about being a backing singer for Madeline Bell..... absolutely brilliant πππππmuch love Lisa xxx
Hi Lisa so sorry in delay getting back to you I'm up in cairngorm and WiFi isn't very good nor the weather first 3 days of holls tipping down ! Rrr your Poppy just horrendous when they leave us was she a typical king charles chilled & just wanted a knee to curl up on ? My neighbour got 3 they are all lovely and she has them all iwith ltheir ear hair long which I love as most people want that all clipped off so doesn't go into their dinner, yes totally agree great to have Abi back , take care Lisa lots of love to George too! My fred fast asleep under my knees under the quilt, the accommodation says no dogs upstairs year right ! so always pack some duck tape for clean up day! ππππxx
Sounds lovely to go away for some peace in the wilderness. Yes Poppy was typical CKCS, over lockdown and especially when my mum was hospitalised and my depression was so bad i could barely get out of bed bless her she never left my side. We rehomed her from someone at 8 weeks old she had been passed around and given away because she had a heart murmer so we knew potentially she wouldn't live to an age.She was a very special dog if you went out she wouldn't leave you alone when you came back in until she had given you a βPoppy hugβ she literally used to hug you around the neck it was so lovelyβ¦β¦ i miss her so much x
Poppy sounds like true Angel Lisa they give us so much unconditional love I'm not surprised you miss her terribly,I wouldn't be without my Freddy hes enjoying his holiday just runs around in the heather chasing the odd bird we saw a few deer yesterday on a ridge in the distance they are such beautiful animals so strong & regal, gonna treat mesell to a souvenir T towel everything is so expensive here might splaah out & get a coaster too, hope you have a good day xxx
Fab pod. Sounds like you had the best night to lift your spirits. Great news about the gig next April. You'll smash it. Caroline Aherne is a particular hero of mine. She left my all time favourite comedy series as her legacy, which I love so much. Mrs Merton was indeed a character who could get away with a lot! That line to Debbie the most memorable! x
Yes, just everyone remembers that line to Debbie McGeeπ Yes, Caroline did marry a wealthy guy but it only lasted 3 years then he remarried the same year of their divorce!
Really enjoyed this one Abi - very upbeat and entertaining!! I would love to visit the 606 club - but maybe the tickets to be bought are for the 13th April?! Thrilled for you enjoy every minute. Caroline married Peter Hook. Lxx
Iβve always thought that about βif I was a sculptor but then again, noβ wtaf π€·π»ββοΈ I really like the Ewan McGregor version of the song from Moulin Rouge, itβs lovely with some opera in it and everything.
Sounds like a great night at the 606 Club, I have missed live music so much. It looks like another London trip is on the cards in April ffs π π Debbie McGee was too funny after Suzanneβs escapades. Imagine Michael Ball had been there!!!! Thanks Michael, weβll let you know ππ€¦ββοΈ
Ps I havenβt had a drink since Dundee either π€£
Time for a few πΈπΈπΈπΉπΉπΉthen Jules. The Brazilian was taking the pod to another level! Iβm all for being shaved in every area though, especially my menπ
Debbie McGee love her but I donβt look like her π, similar type maybe. Loved Anita Harris too. I remember Talk of the Town my parents used to go. I remember my Dad in Vegas he saw Tom Jones was on at some hotel and was so disappointed he said he could have saved himself the trip and seen him in Wales π. Great to hear you are back xx
So many of those singers like Tom Jones lose their voice when they get older. People like Elton John and Paul McCartney come to mind. Of course they use lip-sync and other audio aids. The ticket prices in Las Vegas are so high, I wouldnβt waste my money on these old timers who are well past their best.
Definitely agree they need to call it a day they all have so much money just in it for the adulation, when he was at Glastonbury it's was hilarious how the lovies were bigging him up fake acclaim.
Sounds like you had a great time at the 606 club Abi, just the tonic you needed. Step back whenever you need to Abi. Tbh, a daily pod is very hard to maintain and keep your sanity! Great news that you will be a backing singer for Madeline Bell next year.
I listened to a country song this morning by Luke Bryan, it was written in 2017 and this part of the lyric is ever more relevant today - βI believe if you just go by the nightly news your faith in all mankind is the first thing you loseβ.
Ooh I miss vibrant happening London!This was another really positive and lively pod.Great news about the backing singing for Madellaine Bell too.The 606 club sounds "fabulous darling".I love Blue Mink.I have the Only When I Laugh album.I first heard it at some friends of mum and dad's in Malawi 1975 when I was 6yrs old.You have so many of the same tastes as me Abi.π
Great podcast. It was Peter Hook the guy Caroline Aherne married (in 1995 when she would have interviewed Debbie). Another rabbit hole when you look up some other the other names linked to Peter Hook....
Not sure if I'm on the right pod for this comment .. am catching up .. Lion's Mane is a great mushroom based supplement for anxiety and a host of other things Abi. xx
What a great Monday pod, sounds like you had a fabulous evening Abi π and huge congratulations on your backing singer gig, how bloody exciting, and so deserved π
Love to all, especially Lisa, thinking of you my darling β₯οΈ π xxx

Btw laughed my head off at the term β muffologyβπ€£π€£π€£
βSat on a roof, kicked off some moss,
I wanted to be famous,
Like those twats from Brosβ
Sorry ~ NOT sorry π€£π€£π€£
I've only started listening to this now so don't know what you're referring to yet T, but I went to school with the Goss twins, and yes they were π€£
Seriously though, thatβs great news regarding being a backing singer.
Lovely to hear you so excited about your evening and the people you metπ
Great news about you being singer - maybe we could have a substack trip to see you?

Good to have you back Mrs, itβs tough at times for sure.
Too much information Abi, weβve had your When Harry Met Sally moment, Swiss ball shenanigans, doing a poo when the Tesco man came calling and now the Brazilian wax visual all in the space of a fortnight wtaf??!! π©

At least I didnβt go into detail Julesπ
Thereβs no detail left to go into unless you have a rogue pube somewhere π€·π»ββοΈ

You got Anita Baker, Abi.
