Things we talked about today…
Even the frogs thought it was too hot outside last night as one made its way in Laura’s house! There was a big debarcle as she tried to usher Fred the Frog out of the house, but he ended up under the sofa, on the dining table and behind the drier before getting back to his homeland outside!
Laura and Ben are getting around a bit in the showbusiness circles of York! Last night they had their acting debut in the opening number during Twelfth Night at the Shakespeares Rose – Laura was absolutely loving it and whilst Ben enjoyed himself, he really did have no idea how to dance so the audience may have suffered… AND Laura and Ben were invited to be special guest on the YouTube Challenge show Where’s Next? They went head to head with the team leaders Woody and Amber to hit checkpoints and CORNquer the York Maze. Both videos are on our Facebook page so you can find out who won.
House Band FriYAY! Today we had Ian and Mal performing in the studio ahead of their appearance at the Relay for Life York family fun day this weekend! Jo from the event committee also popped in to give us some more information about this weekend – “Relay For Life is a team fundraising challenge bringing communities together to beat cancer. Teams of family and friends fundraise for life saving cancer research uk, then join other teams and survivors to celebrate their fundraising in an overnight event, taking turns walking around the track”. There’s live entertainment, fun and games and lots more on Saturday the 3rd August! Check out the Facebook page for more info.
