After the event.

A sugar Yes in my hotel room yesterday.

Last night was fantastic at the O2. Thanks to everyone who came. We had a little party after for family and friends which was nice. The producers were there: Stephen Hague, Stuart Price,
Brian Higgins and the Xenomania crew. The “celebs”: David Walliams, Sam Taylor-Wood, Mathew Horne, Scott and Ana from Scissor Sisters. Many old friends, including two members of my first group, Dust! Best of all, my 8‑year old nephew loved the show. x

The tour programme is now on sale and looks very fine. Here it is modelled by Pete Gleadall. (Tour merchandise will soon be available to buy from this site, by the way.)

Last night in Manchester.

We arrived at the O2 by boat.
