Liz's Diary – 11 December 2003

• Diary Index •

Liz RennieHow time flies, last I wrote I'd just done my first game!! Now I've got 5 or 6 under my belt I'm in with the bricks!!

It's been busy busy busy since the season kicked off, but what a fantastic job I have so I can't even moan! The Rocks are doing well, and I'm getting right into the games as you may well have noticed when I'm waving my arms in the air and there are two massive holes in the underarms of my uniform top… "I'm fixing it as we speak CA, so calm down!"

That happened at the Rocks v Birmingham game, I got a tad carried away… nearly had a heart attack…

Been getting into the festive season too, done Paisley Christmas Parade which was good fun, recognised a few faces, you know who you are, yup you lot that saw my backside…

We were in our Santa's little helper's outfits, but do you know that way I thought "everyone looks dead girlie and cute" but I was looking more like the Grinch…

After Paisley all the girls headed to Haven in Ayr for the night. Myself, CA, Elle and Kat F stayed on for a bit to do the Clyde 1 show with George Bowie, that was fab. Done a couple of routines on stage which went well, very impressive even if I do say so myself, but all the while I could hear someone shouting "fix that girl's knickers", I'm thinking "Ha ha, whose??"

YEAH it was mine…!!

Was glad to escape to Ayr after that took about 2 days for my red neck to die down!

Big disco dancing competition was on that weekend and Kat was there with the kids form her school (Cherrykees PLUG PLUG!) so we thought we'd go along to cheer them on, and it was a good excuse to let our hair down and have a wee night out together… until we were told we had to do a couple of routines ourselves… ARGH!!

Ok, so we've danced in front of 50,000 at Ibrox, and we perform every week at Braehead, but to dance slap bang right in front of these backflipping, jump splitting, screaming kids was VERY scary…

It was fine tho' and I think the kids where impressed, looking forward to 'growing up' so they can be a Rockette!

What a laff all of us staying in a caravan, few stories to tell there but don't worry my lips are sealed… altho' for a small fee I could be persuaded… well it is Christmas!!

I won't give too much away but we've got our Christmas night out on the 19th December, and I don't know if I'll cope with this lot.

Until next time,

Liz x
