Gary Baldy And A Pint Of Prosecco!
Sometimes you dream you’ll run on stage and find a baldy guy named Gary because who doesnae love a Gary Baldy? But you don’t expect to find them within the first 5 mins of a show! I honestly thought he was making it up. Gary Baldy brought every biscuit from the tin-the whole family! They ran a family business called Regency Kitchens and Bathrooms and were looking decidedly flush. Gary’s daughter was dying to tell us the story of how she left the Broxburn eggs behind and moved to Uphall for love. We had an arty looking woman in the front with spiky gelled hair and a fabulous scarf called Fay. We didnae know where Fay was fae? I was hoping it would begin with an ‘F’ but it turned out to be Bonnyrigg. After the show I found out there was a woman five seats away who was actually called Fay fae Fauldhouse! We had Mary in the front who was anything but contrary, a lassie fae Cowdenbeath who was keen to introduce the whole family and her friend ‘gay Paul’, a big burly guy who was looking for a bit of Security (work that is) a lassie fae Govan, a well to do lady from Morningside, a lovely wee retired granny from Bathgate which I thought was the name of something she’d had fitted in the house to make bathing easier and a woman who went to the bar and tried to creep back very unsubtly with what looked like two ‘pints’ of Prosecco! Such a fun night topped off with me and Gary Baldy dancing the Highland Fling together like ‘Right Said Fred!’ Let’s do it all over again tonight Livingston!
