I went later to Brigstock,yesterday. Well a nurse has to do her duties, plus I went to the dentist. I arrived midway through Judy’s keep-fit class. Grandma was there, in all her glory , sandwiched between Ernie and Rocky, so of course I had to join in . I plonked myself between Ernie and Gladys. What Ernie didn’t do with his hoop wasn’t worth doing . he swung left, when he should have gone right ( nearly knocking my new temporary crown out ). When he was supposed to be doing ‘picture frame’ -elbows back, hold hoop in front of face,stretch arms,move upper body forward and stick face through hoop, he had his round his ( and anyone else close by ) neck and was gurning. I can’t begin to tell you what he did when given his yellow strip of stretchy rubber.
Went to see ‘Precious’ last night- very moving.
I wish I could have understood half of what Precious said though! And the revelation that Mariah Carey can act!! Btw, how much was the teacher a double for a young Whitney Houston? Still not sure how I felt about it, but I’m sure it’ll clean up at the Oscars…
