Madame Torsos

Samantha and I discovered more of London’s magic last week. I put my Magic Pass to use again, this time at Madame Tussauds, or as my mum calls it, Madame Torsos.

With just under a fortnight left at LEGOLAND, I used my visit to consider my next career move. I met with politicians. Not all of them offered quality advice. 






I was inspired to never give up pursuing the life I want. 


It is a life that doesn’t include a sporting career. 






My future may include cycling. 


I thought perhaps a life as an assistant might be more what I’m looking for. 




The cost of living is quite high over here, so I may need to resort to a life of crime. 


My conscience would get the better of me. Maybe I’d be more suited to fighting crime. 


Seems pretty easy. All that’s required is the ability to stare into the distance. 




I’m currently employed in the Arts, so perhaps I could branch out as a rock star. 












I’ll never have the greatest video of all time, so I might just have to steal awards. 


Apparently you need to be quite tall to make it as a celebrity. 






I did find someone shorter than me. 


I trialled life behind the scenes. 


I finally told Kate and Wills that I am their next child. They refused to sign the adoption papers, but let me get a photo. 


I told a few guys my heart would go on to no avail. 








I adapted to life as a third wheel. 




Modelling is also not exactly what I’m looking for, but I gave it a go. 






Samantha and I met a couple of British boy bands. 



The last time we saw the 1D squad was in Vegas. They remain the strongly silent types. 

We partied with the Star Wars gang. 


They had cool light up limbo sticks. 


The weather was quite nippy. Not really lingerie weather. 




Yoda and I a heart to heart we had. 


Madame Tussauds also featured the lady herself. 


And there was a ride where you sit in a black cab and travel through British history.  




There was also the opportunity to see the stages of producing a wax figure. 






It was a long day.

Bath Time

Image
Rumour has it Bath is a great place to visit when bursting the Windsor bubble. Samantha and I travelled part of the way together. I caught a bus and two trains on my own, then Samantha joined me for the final train. My day out consisted of one bus, six trains and one Uber.  You may have also heard the rumours that train travel in England is expensive. This is true. With the Trainline App, booking in advance, and travelling outside peak times I scored the return trip for £20. This was a bargain price.  Bath is quite a pretty city, even the times it rained. You can't go to Bath without expecting a little water.  For £11 each, we spent part of the Bath showers in the Jane Austen Centre.  The self guided tour began with an introductory history lesson about the Austen family.  Jane's mother moved her and her sister to Bath to find husbands. Neither of them did. I too did not find a husband, even though I dressed up especially for the trip.  I too am surprised my...

Audition Adventures

Image
Recently I attended a couple of auditions, which led me on wonderful adventures in old London Town.  The first audition was held at the Dominion Theatre.  This is the West End home of my all time favourite stage musical - An American in Paris.  The audition didn’t take place on the stage, but  it was cool to be in the vicinity of a ‘S Wonderful production.  My evening finished with a trip to the Harry Potter section of Primark. Hogwarts might not be real, but my love of Harry and the gang is.  My next audition led me to Oxford Street. On a whim I decided to check out the Selfridges Christmas windows.  Part way through my examination of the captivating details I overheard someone talking about lights being turned on. It wasn’t as though we were in a blackout, so I Googled what they were on about. It turned out the Christmas lights were going to be turned on with a free concert. By now I’m sure you’re all aware of my love for freebies, so of course I dec...

Life at Legoland

Image
Life at Legoland has been made that much better thanks to the beautiful bunch of brickheads I've discovered here.  Legoland Windsor Resort Some of my fellow brickheads and I have explored the park. According to the Ninjago ride I'm only a rookie. It may be a little while before I reach my Wu potential. That's Master Wu with Cara, Kate and I.  And there's Nya with Laura and Greta.  We galloped over to Mia's riding adventure, where you couldn't rein in my excitement.  There was something fishy going on at Atlantis.  Fairytale Brook offered a leisurely boat ride past storybrick scenes.  We all decided to go left, then go right over to the Lego Friends to the Rescue Show.  Laura and I also watched the Return to Skeleton Bay pirate stunt show.  We have spent many mornings and nights in the Legoland Hotel.  The halls of the Castle Hotel have also occupied our time.  We also spend our days surrounded by miniature lands.  Bringing joy to ti...
