Quick Tea (Rex) break on tour.

It can be a struggle adjusting to life after touring, my kids are no longer amused by me wearing this costume on the school run and Gecko has been attempting to do a celebratory chicken solo in Aldi one too many times.

fab Gecko track

[Gecko @geckoofficial]

25 years ago 2 pigs escaped in Malmesbury, South West England before being slaughtered & went on the run becoming a news sensation.

They were a brother & sister. They were named 'The Tamworth Two'.

I wrote this song to celebrate their daring adventure.

My third picture book 'I Love My Cat' was published in the summer and it's been so much fun seeing the reaction to it both online and in person (assisted by my extremely well behaved cat puppet). It could be the perfect Christmas gift for the cat lovers in your life.
