New Year Blog by Sophie Cox-O'Shaughnessy

 

💃🕺🎉Happy New Year!🎊🎶🥳

Captain Tigress here! Just reporting in with, the facts that as a musician I have sung 'Born to be Wild' a few times (as part of the set as a Medic when I was in the band Dr &The Medics #JustSoYouKnow); my mother's mother's maiden name was Wildman and I temporarily took this name for my stage name (whilst performing the lead for a production at the stage school I studied at (The Arts Educational Schools London, Caryl Churchill playwright #JustSayin') this article has inspired my occasionally themed superhero blog for this yearly event. 

Here's hoping we can all continue and face this new year 2022 and onwards with the courage of, for example, a tigress protecting her newborn.  

As a mother myself I can vouch for knowing sometimes to be fierce is totally natural when it comes to protecting one's offspring.  

This video is adorable and comes with a warning that it has an exceptional cuteness factor!  

Preserving nature, action on climate change, is particularly prevalent in society worldwide nowadays.  

This birth of an endangered species gives hope and joy.  Here's to more of it! 

Let's hope we can take courage with our actions with the threat that humanity is experiencing in recent years.

Happy Christmas Spirit! Ho Ho Ho!

 Wishing Everyone the Best of Health and Good Cheer for Now and the New Year!

I am not a celebrity, nor do I have any aspirations to be.  However, appealed by a possible reunion, if only, a meet up in a pub/bar, I have found (what I already have On Video) this clip: 

(Go to 6.20 mins. in to the clip.)

Wow! We're on the 2000 (Part 1. of 5.) show of Sugg's Kareoke programme.  I guess I'm on the right, but Bev and I (as the Medics) were so slight, sorry Clive, it rhymes, and I'm, supposedly a singer/songwriter now!

(Yes, I know, it is around the Halloween timescale line, however, the spirit of Christmas never dies, and I have found as a child and an adult, the theme of this song is always so totally apt.)

Oh, yeh, I appeared on this Show, 20/21 years ago. (See this following link.)

I remember it vividly, although not picked up by the camera alot (in this clip) because I complemented Robbie Williams' Dad in the Green room: your voice sounds like velvet, I said.  NB. I have yet to meet Robbie Williams, and his Angels song has always struck a chord with me.

I think, it's so amazing, it's 21 years ago this year. 

God bless us all.

Happy Christmas and a Happy New Year To All of my Loved Ones!

***Update***

In a follow up post, it says it is Clive who's poorly, so I am wishing him a very speedy recovery. Shout out to Clive: Speedy recovery pal!

And, just to cheer you up, here's a picture of me in my Christmas jumper (that I have revived again this year), tho. obvs getting This years Christmas jumper(s) woz a must. (See following blog link.)

Who else, like me, the other day, didn't even realise it was Christmas Jumper Day when they decided to put their Christmas jumper on today then!  (Okay, it's not as fetching an outfit as my costume in the show then, but hey, ho, ho, ho! (and another pun intended, bada boom bish bash bong! - that's me on the drums, also!).  

Anyhow, I hope this cheers you up Clive, one, and all. Take care and Best wishes, Sophie ✌️❤️

and, if (talking in general now) you haven't worn your Christmas jumper yet, don't be a bah-humbug! get it out, get it on!

and, for the intellectually stimulated! here's a little equation, just for you:

1 and/or 2... x 🎽 + 🎄 = Christmas jumper!

(Okay, emojis only do tank tops, but that will have to suffice, alright!)

 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Three weeks to Christmas 🎄 I was Soooo looking forwards to some de-stress, (espesh cos I got an eyesight test and such gorgeous glasses prescribed, recently. Tho., Only for reading, I can't claim all the glory), pardon the punn! to attending the last Christmas with Clive show, a potential reunion from singing and dancing as one of the Medics/Backing Singers from way back in 2000-2001 UK England tour, that I was most fortunate to partake of this popular star's journey,  I am so now looking forwards to the rescheduled event, as unfortunately it was cancelled due to illness, though it doesn't state which member of the team is poorly.

Whoever is ill, I wish you a very speedy recovery.

Here I am, first left of Clive, The Doctor, in all of my "present" glory!

God bless, have a Happy Christmas and a Healthy and a Happy New Year!

Birthday Blog!

 

Aren't birthdays great!

Captain Birthday Girl here! 

First of all, I would like to remember my Mum, I wouldn't be here without her, Brenda Mary Cox nee Rees, first marriage O'Shaughnessy (26/04/2021). She beat cancer the first time, in the UK, and valiantly declined to let it take away ones choices the second, in Australia.

Birthday Girl, available to hire, of course*, however celebratin' 'ones own birthday' would simply seem like 'pimp my birthday', and you don't have to go to a 'finishing school' to know good manners!

Anyhow, my message to you is to 'wind up your waist baby', at least on my behalf anyway.

Askin' for a friend:  I have taken a fair few tumbles off me bike, like, 'owever, Touch all the beautiful wood, in the forest like, not yet from off of a horse, yet, just at the mo. currently restin' up like, Drs orders and all that... . 

Been three weeks now and only just officially got the pass I'm all clear to "phase in working out, both singing and physical exercises".

I can only express my thanks to those informed, and who listen to "C'mon Eileen"! 

We shall win the fight! (fits all circumstances, and it's better than most government attempts at baloney... .)

Here I am in all of my (randomly filmed) birthday glory!
