Today's show did go out at 12 (Thanks to Victoria @treehousebookshop.bsky.social for lining it up and my dashing in to flip a couple of switches)
It's now available on listen again

Can I be shameless and say please listen, it's my birthday?π€£π€£π€£π€£
A girl has to try!
A show has been written and recorded for today, but it's my birthday, and I'm (hopefully) going out to play. The usual people aren't available to schedule it, but another colleague is going to try, so hopefully, on at 12. If not, it will be on listen again laterπ
A very Happy Birthday. Mine's tommorrow so as we're a few hours ahead of the US, I am claiming that I share a bit of mine with Liza - and also with you!
ππππ He might be a very cute Marquis
Why thank-you!
Happy 80th Birthday to the legend that is Liza Minnelliπ₯³π
( for a few hours, given the time difference, we share a birthday! Tenuous link, but, I'll take that!π)
I've been having a busy week, so haven't plugged this week's show much. It has had a lovely review though www.mixcloud.com/RadioAbbey/s...
with @treehousebookshop.bsky.social Chatting about things we'd love to do, incl bringing MT to gigs.
We don't know if it would work, or if there's a market in this area, but, if anyone would like to give it a try, for the joy of performing in this "enchanting" space then we'd love to talk.
Some wonderful songs, there's some interesting trivia. You could do worse things with an hour and 10 mins (I ran over again) of your life

These are fantastic classes
We've been having discussions about jingles for our shows at the stations. I always use generic station ones but would love to do one for my show specifically. What do you think makes a good jingle?
(my primary choice is brevityπ)
A perfect day for a trip to Stratford for my partner's birthday, and a magnificent haul of treasure from the 2nd hand shops. So much happiness!
Currently at 3rd in the Musicals chart for this week.
It used to hit the top spot most weeks, but since some of the facebook groups started being awkward about sharing, it has been very hard to get anywhere.
It is 216 not 217 - I got carried away

Loved the playlist this week, there's a real mix of eras and styles, designed for the true Musical Theatre lover

Usually this show is played live in @treehousebookshop.bsky.social , this has often led to spontaneous singing and dancing from the customers. Today, however it's not Victoria on shift - it's my partner, so the show won't be playingπ(he gets enough of it in the week)
On at 12 today on Radio Abbey Kenilworth www.radioabbey.com
If you listen via mixcloud you can chat along. I'd love a bit of company because I'm feeling cross today and a lovely chat about musicals will helpπ
It really was! She certainly can sing, and she brought all the pain to the song.
When a package arrives through the post and you're expecting it to be more bad news, but, it turns out to be really lovely.
I have a fun weekend ahead, once I have finished with this week's show! #SondheimSociety
Me too!
Finally made it! I have been looking forward to this for so long!β€οΈ
Absolutely loved To Maury with Love at Drury Lane tonight. Beautiful music, wonderful performances and some really lovely tributes.
February has been good at the shop, but it's a short month and hasn't been good enough to make up the serious shortfall from a very quiet January. Everyone will be paid except me. So here is our online shop for anyone who wants books or merch! (UK only) #BookSky

An hour of wonderful songs, a bit of trivia.
Has been known to cause dancing in bookshops

Well, that would definitely be meπ€£
That must have been hard!
I've been looking for years π probably will be way beyond my budget if I do see one.
Just looking at your profile photo - I opened the show with Walking Papers from The Act this weekπ
Yes, I saw her at The Royal Albert Hall nearly 24 years ago ( I can be that specific as I was ridiculously pregnant at the time π) I am still sulking that they had run out of programmes
This weeks show, no glitz and glamour, and fancy guests, just fantastic songs and a bit of trivia
