Magic Carpet Ride

It’s been an unsettled sort of day and I’ve felt emotional, tired and irritable.

Maybe it’s just the season or the relentless torrent of stress and worry? Who knows?

Suffice it to say that I was actually not looking forward to rehearsal tonight as I knew I would need to be “made up” (thank you, Samm) for a filmed flying carpet* sequence we were going to make. This also meant having a shave, which I hate as my bald face coupled with a bald head (also mine) is not a great combo. At least my stubble breaks things up a little bit….

As it turns out, it was actually a really fun evening and nice to do something a little different as part of the panto proceedings. 

Looking forward to seeing the finished product and whether Aladdin’s costume blending into the backdrop will result in a disembodied head bobbing around!

Fellow blipper; ayearinthelife turned up to take a look at what we were doing and has posted his version of events here. I know that he favours song titles to use to moniker his blips and I was amazed to find that he hadn’t gone with Magic Carpet Ride.
