Day 7

Papa S. — Wed, 03 Dec 2008 10:15:20 +0000

I didn't get to sleep until 1.30am so when the alarm goes off at 8am I have to drag myself out of bed to order breakfast.

Day 6

Papa S. — Tue, 02 Dec 2008 08:22:47 +0000

This so rarely happens to me, but I actually slept through the alarm and didn't wake up until 10am. I think that must be the latest I've stayed in bed for years.

Day 5

Papa S. — Mon, 01 Dec 2008 10:00:40 +0000

Yesterday was a relatively uneventful day news-wise due to an early show (6pm) and an afternoon spent following a text report of the Manchester United game.

Day 4 (angels and ice cream)

Papa S. — Sun, 30 Nov 2008 09:49:30 +0000

Woke up at a reasonable hour and ordered breakfast in my room. The one problem I'm having in this hotel are the amount of autograph hunters in the foyer, restaurant and bar.

Day 3 (Show 1)

Papa S. — Sat, 29 Nov 2008 09:40:09 +0000

Yesterday was a strange day as most of it was spent at the venue, first rehearsing and then the show. I was up quite early and feeling very tired.

Day 2 (Big Santa and The Organ Grinder)

Papa S. — Fri, 28 Nov 2008 09:04:42 +0000

Not a bad night's sleep considering. I woke up a few times as my body obviously thought I was having an afternoon nap, but eventually managed to sleep through until 9am when breakfast arrived.

Happy Thanksgiving

On the day when

The weight deadens

On your shoulders

And you stumble,

May the clay dance

To balance you

And when your eyes

Freeze behind

One day gone........

Papa S. — Thu, 27 Nov 2008 09:13:01 +0000

......twenty six to go.

Here I Go Again...

Papa S. — Wed, 26 Nov 2008 00:27:00 +0000

... Another airport lounge (this time Lufthansa). I arrive in Germany tomorrow morning and will be updating regularly from the road. I would write more

Let me sum up this evening

Dear All,

Let me sum up this evening.

Frances is away so I'm on my own with D&W. I'd been invited to quite a few Obama events due to my support (vocally and financially). I had to turn them down because I chose to be with my kids.
