As we head towards the end of 2024, it's been quite a year! We've had some AMAZING gigs, and Denise Osler Briden has come on in leaps and bounds with her singing. Standing up in front of a room full of strangers singing is tough enough, but to come from no experience to backing me and singing her own stuff in just over a year, and do it WELL, is amazing. It takes a LOT of courage, and I'm VERY proud of her.
Another lady I'm very proud of is my daughter Char Martin. Not only has she and her partner Gary given me four BEAUTIFUL grandchildren, but she's also taken on her nephew who was having trouble at home, which added to his type 1 diabetes is no easy task. As well as all that she gets up at 2.30am and goes to work before coming home to do the school run. She is truly astonishing, and I'm very proud to call her mine.
Next year I will marry Dee, and two of the loveliest people it's ever been my privilege to know, Nicola Andrews and Martin Andrews will be matron of honour and best man. I can't wait!
From Denise and myself, have an amazing NYE, and an equally amazing new year!
