OOPS...I FORGOT!

A little more than a month ago we published our first blog in over six. Re-reading the last post it seems that I mentioned we (namely I) would be updating every week, but to be completely honest I forgot. However I am getting better and as the ancient proverb goes things can only get better. There is so much to fill you all in on that I have decided to split it into two separate posts. 

One of David's creations

Twisting seems to have taken over my life at the moment and for the second time this year I decided to enhance my twisting skills by learning from the best. As a member of The Balloon Artists Guild I took a trip down to Banstead, Surrey to meet up with some other twisters for a day of fun and education where we were inspired by David Brenion. For those who have never heard of him, he is one half of ‘Three Circles’, an American entertainments company. I came away with some fantastic creations and more than a few ways to adapt them for countless other designs. 

With KJ now being a fully fledged member of FACE (The Face Painting Association), she decided to hold a ‘jam’ at the beginning of April. This is where lots of painters come together from all over and teach, learn from and inspire each other with their painting skills. And what a turnout it was! Over 20 painters attended from all over the Country and not just East Anglia with one painter even travelling from Wales. We filled the hall at Ten Mile Bank with colour galore and had two professional photographers on hand to capture it all on film. For her first ever jam, she certainly did good and it was a fantastic day! 

 

KJ's first "Jam" - a roaring success

Next up for me was The St George’s Day Parade in March (the town, not the month) where I was twisting creations for the public during the afternoon’s celebrations in the Market Place. Thousands of people came and went through the Town Centre that afternoon and a few of the more lucky ones were able to take a balloon home with them as a memento of the day. All I can say about this day was that it was BUSY. Unfortunately I didn't manage to get any pictures myself but the official photographer did get a snippet of a balloon in one of his and if you click the link above you can just make it out :)

We've had lots of Krazy Kidz Parties also, with many new bookings coming from them too not just repeat ones which is always great news for us. Leaving lots of little ones with smiles on their faces is something that we both enjoy very much and with KJ either face painting or glitter tattooing at lots of these parties, the children have a lasting memory to take away with them too. We also had a couple of school discos just before the children broke up for the Easter holidays, something that I enjoy very much and we are very lucky to have acquired 3 more schools to add to our list recently. 

Our regular Karaoke Nights at The Red Lion in Soham and The Case in Wisbech have been as busy as usual and we also recently provided the entertaiment for some 40th birthday celebrations locally which I am sure would have carried on into the wee small hours if possible!

There is much more to tell you as April was a very busy month for us but I don't want to give it all away in this post so I will save some for the next one!  

Until next time...keep the music playing ♪
