SEA ODYSSEY, LIVERPOOL
Yesterday I was due to return home after filming for CBBC in Liverpool. We saw a news story on the t.v. in the morning and decided to go and have a look at a parade that was taking place all around Liverpool. It was part of the stories about The Titanic and in the three-day event, the 50ft diver wanders the city searching for his “little girl” niece, to give her a letter he discovered in the wreck written to her by her dead father . We were staying at a hotel at Albert Dock and the Diver...
GOT HIM
Got him, at last. I have been trying to get a good photo of my Woodpecker and today I got him. Also a clever squirrel climbing the chain to get to the nuts and a moorhen underneath picking up all the bits that dropped. A good day for wildlife.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY MUM
I am doing all the jobs today. I made breakfast and I am going to make some lunch for my mum. My mum was born on Friday the 13th so she says it is lucky for her and she is going to buy some lottery tickets.
GO APE
Yesterday I went to the new Go Ape at Trent Park with my mum and my brother and his wife.

BLACK SHEEP
Today we were watching The Wright Stuff and they were talking about the word BLACK being changed in the nursery rhyme BAA BAA BLACK SHEEP. My mum said it was a rhyme about paying a third of the wool you produced to the landlord or tax collector. The saying BLACK SHEEP OF THE FAMILY was to do with being less wanted because black wool was not wanted as much as white wool. You couldn’t dye it different colours.
Easter Time
How does the guy on the HTC1 skydiving advert work the screen with gloves on? Great advert though.
Busy Busy Busy
Wow, it has been mad busy this week. I have been here, there and everywhere. Lots of new auditions and and recalls. I had time to do some archery practice but I wasn’t able to get a booking for my drum lesson because I couldn’t fit it in. I have been practising hard though so I should be good for my next lesson. I was at Canvey Island yesterday with Archie and Darren Jeffries just finishing some last bits on a short film. We just made it before the rain started. We went to visit a friend of mine before we...
