Celebrity

Back when I wasn't as obscure as I am now, I attended daughter.2's school play. I think it was "Jack and the beanstalk". One of the players, she couldn't have been more than 10, came up to me and said "I know who you are". I wasn't entirely surprised that my fame had spread as far as Chesham Bois School, but my delight was punctured when she said "You're Angie's dad!"

Ever since then, whenever my head has threatened to required doors to be widened, ladysolly reminds me of this.

So I was visiting the daughters last week, and daughter.2 mentioned to me all the free meals, holidays, and other goodies she gets offered, on account of her luxury life-style blog Silverspoon London. So many, that she turns down most of them.

She's won numerous awards for her blog, She has 767 friends on Facebook, 5000 Twitter followers,  1352 on Instagram. And she's probably attached to loads of other social media things that I wot not about.

And I just realised that this must mean; daughter.2 is a celebrity.

  1. Does this mean you're even more famous now? Have people started called you Angie SilverSpoon's dad? Sadly I'm yet to be recognised on the streets but it's only a matter of time...
    Lots of love,
    Daughter. 2

    1. Angie,

      Perhaps you could offer your poor old dad some of these many holidays etc.you turn down. I know he must be poor cos he wasn't mentioned in the Sunday Times yesterday!

    2. The Doc and ladysolly don't like holidays, they prefer tramping through bogs...
