Model Behaviour

18th November 2007. At Madame Tussauds. Hannah and Evie with a guitar 'hero'. Is that the bloke from The Darkness? Whoever it is, Evie looks appropriately revolted.

18th November 2007. At Madame Tussauds. Hannah's dad Nigel works there, so we had a VIP day, skipping the queue, having someone take our coats and seeing the room where all the models are fixed. Excellent. Hannah, her sister Rebecca and her mum Annabel came with us. Annabel used to work here too, so she's one of the models. In fact at the time of writing, if you click on the Madame Tussauds link, you can see Annabel's model in a black and red jacket taking a picture. Anyway, here's Hannah, Evie, Elsa & Ross standing with the legendary Jimi.

Dune

Wookiee

2nd September 2007. We're on holiday on the south coast and decide to go the the Lydd Airshow. We thought it would be one man and his dog, but in fact it was huge. 25000 people over the weekend! Anyway, here are Evie & Elsa posing with a real live Wookiee. They need to see the films now...
