Live Music, going to gigs and festivals anywhere in Europe, and the USA given the chance, as long as Robby Vee is there. Traveling with family and friends, meeting new people in the process.
Cooking and entertaining, oophs sorry darling I do know YOU do the cooking!
Spending time with my two beautiful Grandchildren
Music
ROBBY VEE
The Mavericks, Queen, The Boss, Bon Jovi, Bryan Adams, Elvis of course---if only I could find out WHOSE filing cabinet he's living in! Willie Nelson-- "City of New Orleans" Eric Clapton--"Wonderful Tonight" Buddy Holly, Kevin Montgomery--- catch him when on tour in the UK! John Mueller, The Eagles, Eurythmics--Sisters are doing it for themselves!!!!Robbie Williams,just to watch him perform!The Commitments, James Intveld, Paul Lamb and The Kingsnakes, Marcus Malone. Sounds of the 60's on a Saturday morning, BBC Radio 2 for those unfamiliar with UK radio stations. Anyone who plays the guitar so well that it sends shivers down yer spine! Soooo ROBBY VEE, and maybe a few others!!
Movies
Soppy English films, dare I say, "Four Weddings and a Funeral", "Notting Hill", "Love Actually","Calender Girls", hmm perhaps should of been in that, well then again, perhaps not, "The Commitments", ----------"The Full Monty"------OK seems I don't get out much!! Not seen anything lately which is daft considering-----------------!!
Television
Any good two part series, so I don't have to remember not to miss it!
Home makeover programmes, never completely satisfied with mine!!!
Oh and "Bodies" reminds me of my previous life! Ahhh the lovely Max Beesley, now to be given the chance to "work " with him would be worth going back to hospital life for! I would have him as my Senior Registrar any day!
Books
Anything by Ann Tyler, Anita Shreeve or Adriana Trigiani. Have just started reading the author Carole Matthews, I can highly recommend her Chocolate books!!
My LOVELY Husband and my TWO WONDERFUL sons in law, HOW DO THEY ALL COPE???
Maybe my Cousin Richard who can certainly organise a party, but who thinks I am barking mad!
I live in Derby UK, which is currently being rebuilt it seems! Derby, not the UK. Retired early from the health service, too much like hard work!! I now have time to indulge myself in my passion for live music
My interest in music has led me to the privilaged position of promoting American musician---- ROBBY VEE--- in the UK, check out his UK website > www.robbyvee.co.uk < This in turn led me to the Devil Dog Music Market, asked by Robby to be involved this side of the pond, anyone in the music business should check out >devildogmusic.com<
If you think because your from the UK its not for you, then think again, the UK office for Devil Dog is now open.
Married to David for more years than you want to know, I am a proud Mother and Nanna. Never think that retirement is a time to put your feet up and relax, its not, so much to do and hopefully plenty of time to do it in!!

Well done, ma'am, for mentioning Buddy Holly in your favorites. Did you know i played guitar with him?
I'll be in the UK in 7 days to start a tour that will take me across England and Scotland. I hope you can make one of the shows?
Take care, and i hope i'll be seeing you soon.
Sincerely,
Tommy Allsup
hey girl, hope you are doing good. I know you are into Buddy Holly, so i thought i would let you know about the Tommy Allsup tour that is about to start in the Uk next week. We play a series of dates in England and Scotland.
Tommy played guitar on all that Buddy Holly stuff, and is THE guy that flipped the coin with Ritchie Valens on that fateful night of the plane crash.
Don't miss it. Tommy is 76, and full of stories....come out if you can...would be great to see you. Oh, and we recorded some Buddy stuff last week in Nashville, and there is a video of the recording with Tommy in action in my blog.
Anyway, take care. Hope you are doing good.
Sincerely,
Kevin Montgomery
Hope the sun is shining over there!? I'll be coming to the UK with Kevin Montgomery in late May/June. I think the nearest date to you would be Leicester on June 3rd. I hope you can make it out.
Take care,
Tommy Allsup
Hey! Hope the weather is turning a little warmer over yander. I'll be coming to the UK in late May/early June to tour with Kevin Montgomery. Would love to see you at a show!
