Call Off The Search

I won't spend my life
Waiting for an angel to descend
Searching for a rainbow with an end
Now that I've found you I'll call off the search
And I won't spend my life
Gazing at the stars up in the sky
Wondering if love will pass me by
Now that I've found you I'll call off the search

Out on my own
I would never have known this world
That I see today
And I've got a feeling
It won't fade away

And I won't end my days
Wishing that love would come along
Because you are in my life where you belong
Now that I've found you I'll call off the search
Now that I've found you I'll call off the search
Now that I've found you I'll call off the search

Somewhere over the rainbow



This afternoon began with a nice meal with Dad and Stephanie at the Sofra restaurant near Bond Street before Sharon and I headed off for our real main course.........

We went to the London Palladium to watch Rufus Wainwright peform Judy Garland's famous Carnegie Hall set in it's entirety. The place was packed with celebrities and we saw Ian McKellen, Neil Tennant, Jennifer Saunders and Dawn French, Richard Wilson and many others.

Rufus was amazing, he has such a fantastic voice and despite missing a couple of notes put on one of the best shows I have ever seen. It was a wonderful evening and he was also joined onstage by his mum Kate McGarrigle, his sister Martha and Judy Garland's daughter Lorna Luft. Even better the whole thing was being recorded for a TV special and for DVD release as well, can't wait to see them.


This isn't a great photo as we weren't allowed to use flashes but from left to right it is:
