Flaming heck! Chippy turns 250,000!

Here’s a portmanteau post. On Friday night, Janine stopped at ours after a week’s camping out in the Olympic National Park. It was great to catch up with her, and to have along for my favourite gig this year – the Flaming Lips at Marymoor Park.

Karen, Sonia, Janine and I rocked out for a couple of hours to hamster balls, lasers, balloons and just a great show of new songs and old favourites. Great, friendly, well organised venue, too.
