Christmas Letter - 2018

Hello Everyone

I do hope you are all looking forward to Christmas. Christmas is my busiest time with Theatre shows and gigs up and down the country but, I always make sure I have Christmas Day off where I fit the whole of Christmas into the one day!

I am looking forward to a wonderful Luncheon this Sunday - 2nd December - where I hope, a great deal of warmth, camaraderie, and merrymaking will make it day to remember. I organise this on behalf of The Friends of The City Varieties which brings everyone together. Held at The Hilton in Leeds (This year and last) I am keeping my fingers crossed that everything goes well.

One sad note is that we have lost one of our artistes who was due to appear in the after luncheon show - Keith Christie (Our Magician) died last week, when he suddenly passed away at home. I haven't tried to replace him - no-one could. I know that Johnny Casson will do extra time if necessary.

We have a lovely bill this year Adam Daye (From who do you do) is our Compere, Andrew Van Buren and Ally will perform feats to conform with his spinning plates (He is recording a TV show at present. He told me that when he filmed The Generation Game he got through 2,000 plates - He didn't break any but the contestants did!) We also have 'Encore' - a group of over 20 singers, Nigel Wears at the keyboard and our Comedian Johnny Casson.

We are now making plans for the next luncheon. This will be on Sunday 1st December where Don Maclean will be our top of the bill. More announcements later in the year as artistes are finalized. If you live in the area and are interested please join The Friends Of The City Varieties and become involved with us. We have speakers, meetings, a Newsletter, the Luncheon plus you can get discounts at the theatre.

Since I last wrote we have, of course, lost the great Ken Dodd. A wonderful entertainer as well as a wonderful human being - he was so kind to me and generous with his time and advice. I am so pleased he married his long time partner Anne, Lady Dodd. He meant the world to her and she always looked after him. He is greatly missed. He was one of the greats and we shall never see his like again.

A Happy and Healthy New Year too.

Keep well and thriving until we meet again whether on these pages or in person.


Sithee later

As you know Caroline enjoys writing - She wrote articles for The Yorkshire Dalesman for almost two years when they commissioned her to write 'Tales Of Grandma' and Caroline's experiences in The Dales with her Grandma. Grandma, who could neither read or write, survived on very little money - instead exchanging goods she would make - honey, jam, beer, flowers, hand-sewn rugs and patchwork quilts and knitting clothes to order.
