Eating and Gigging

I’ve been spoilt this week with the girls all rallying around to look after me.

Wednesday night saw me, Tanya, Sofia and Rachel taking cover in Wahaca from the rain for a long overdue catch up.  We all went to drama school together but everyone’s conflicting schedules mean we rarely all get together.

My sister, Louisa, and her friends from the National Youth Theatre Rep Company have set up their own band, The Cavalier.  They’ve already performed at The Old Vic Pit Bar and are getting quite a name for themselves.  Three girls, an array of instruments which they all play, voices which blend beautifully, clever mash ups….they are BRILLIANT!

They dedicated a Spice Girls song to me so I was over the moon….

Dancing was a necessity…in unison if at all possible…
