The Midas touch - (Monday 30 June)


Don't forget this afternoon on Radio 3 starting at 2.40pm there is a concert by Gosta Nystroem: Sinfonia del mare with Ailish Tynan (soprano) and the BBC Symphony Orchestra with John Storgards (conductor) Tartini, arr Kreisler: Devil's Trill SonataIlya Gringolts (violin) Ashley Wass (piano) - unfortunately this clashes with Tarzans Celebrity Cook's Challenge at 3.00pm on ITV1 - decisions, decisions !

Well what a week last week was, at times it felt like we had the Midas touch - everything we could have hoped for and more besides - venues that potentially included Bingo, Football, Curry, Supermarkets, Clothes shopping and with Tiger Tiger a finishing venue to end all finishing venues !!

So what next ? sit back, relax and smoke cigars and wait for the big day ?

Far from it... this is where the hard work really starts with agreeing the route, times for Tarzan, Jane and the Banana to make their appearances, arranging support teams and volunteers to help with collections on the day, more PR work for the team with planned radio interviews, magazine articles to be written and published all this and much much more (... not forgetting some training to ensure we are physically ready for 13th September) - for a start I've not run anything longer than a few hundred metres with full make up on - will it run ? will my bra rub or do I need to buy a sports bra !!?
