Thanks for listening!

Connie works with Toby Gad

In June, Connie made her second visit of this year to Los Angeles, and stayed for just over a week. She spent much of the time in the recording studio, where she was working with the legendary multi-Grammy award winning song writer/producer Toby Gad.

This picture shows Toby and Connie during a break in recording sessions.

Connie also found time while she was in L.A. to visit Disneyland and other interesting places. At the end of her visit, when Connie was on her way to the airport to catch her flight home to England, we asked her what she thought was the most amazing thing that happened during her stay in America. Without any hesitation, she replied, "Definitely the most amazing thing was working with Toby Gad in the recording studio!"

Sunshine in Wales

After a very hardworking school year, Connie and her family are taking a well-earned break, on a little holiday in Wales. They spent most of today on the beach! Here's Connie, thinking about taking a dip in the ocean.

This summer, the UK has had chilly temperatures and record rainfalls. Wales is a beautiful country, with lovely people. And usually it's wetter than the Amazon rain forest.

But as soon as the Talbot family arrived there, the sun came out, and the temperature rocketed to the high nineties! How did they do that?

Must be some kind of magic! :-)

My Last Day of Primary School

My last day at primary school was a rollercoaster of a day; I was excited, happy and sad all at the same time. For the whole of the school day, I was lucky enough to spend it with all my friends, listening to music, having a party and writing good bye messages on each-others shirts.


It was the best last school day I could ask for. After school, me and the rest of my friends got changed and there was a pink limo waiting to pick us up and take us out for a meal. All our families, friends and teachers were there to take photos and wave us off; even a reporter from a newspaper was there to take photos of us all. 


Once inside the limo, we all had drinks waiting for us and our favourite music playing - a medley of 2012 songs. After having a drive around, we were dropped off at a restaurant, where all our families were now waiting for us.  The meal was a nice way to sit, talk and reminisce about school. 


After getting home, I already started to miss everyone, which is why I was sad for a while, but I’ve already arranged to spend the day with everyone during the summer holiday.


That was my last day, thank you for reading,
