Wow, wow, wow! What a fantastic time I had today at the Tall Ships!
I had three sets on the Family Stage at Blaikies Quay and despite a rainy start, there was soon a super audience for my first set! Elsie the fishwife joined me to tell the story of a grumpy fishwife and there was time at the end for a tale from the Arabian Nights of a fisherman and a genie!

Then for the second and third sets, I was joined by Sam Stephen, Makaton interpreter extraordinaire!
Fizzy the Fairy had to get a story in there of course – with her help (and Sam’s!) we told a version of Mark Fraser’s Flotsam Fairy which went down very well!
After that it was… plain sailing. And we had a whale of a time. (And many other fish related puns)!
Thanks to The Tall Ships Aberdeen for having us along to perform and to WeToo for organising Sam’s interpretation for the audience!
