Palmer tour was very busy, and didn’t get a chance to find many hotspots. I’m currently in Buxton, with no return ticket to the US, but working on getting that straightened out. Houston performs tonight, and I’m singing at the concert Thursday, and maybe doing more next week…will try to post more later today if I can get a chance.
If you have emailed me, please be patient…currently downloaidng the 5000+ emails that arrived, and the junk filter is thrashing away!
Will try to post them each evening, depending upon access.
Here is Day 1.
First day in the UK: Landed, toured Penshurst Place (home of Sir Philip Bleedin’ Sidney) and Gardens, came to Chelmsford, rehearsed in Chelmsford Cathedral, dined at hotel, wandered around town with Camille, Paige, and Jeff. Pics up tomorrow…too zonked now.
Also, Stinky Pinkies delayed until I get home.
There is a world of difference in Spain’s withdrawal of her troops from Iraq, which was based on principle and done in accordance with a campaign pledge, and the Philippines’, which was done under threat from terrorists to behead a hostage. Now that they have acquiesced to this group’s demands, how long will it take for other groups to follow that lead? The Philippines have been fighting a Muslim insurgency in their southern islands for many years; will the government withdraw troops from their own territory now because of new threats? IHow many innocent Filipinos are going to be kidnapped and killed because the terrorists have seen that this is now an effective method with dealing with that government?
