...and left with 300 new fans. they were absolutely fantastic.
they were scheduled to arrive at 1:30. at 12:30 had not heard anthing and was beginning to worry that we would be sitting in the hall with no one turning up. but then i got a call from Matt at 1 - they arrived about 20 minutes later. We got some kids to interview them. they were so fantastic with the kids - got them really interested and entertained everyone. then they sang "one day" which was sooooo fantastic live and gave some kids free tickets (gave me some too - but i couldn't go  ). then we gave them some home baking to say thank you
Was just really impreseed with the way they intereaacted with everyone - signed things, took pics and everything. the kids were buzzing, i was jumping up and down with the photography teacher and the other teachers were really impressed. So YAH Opshop! |

Oh my gosh yes Kelly I saw that doco. And she was grinning and was so happy. I cried my eyes out too and thought I would never think of that song in the same way again. ------------- Mama to DS1 (5 years), DS2 (3 years) and... http://alterna-tickers.com" rel="nofollow">
