Early morning Baker

Woke up this morning, fed Abbey and switched on Radio 5. The Danny Baker show was on with Geoff Capes. A famous strong man of my youth, he came to our school during our schools sports effort week.He was talking about his budgerigar collection. He has 200 and they are in competition. Geoff Capes, who could pull trains and planes. He was really interesting, talking about how he trained his budgies. Danny then played the moment when a trombone player sneezed into his trombone in a quiet, moving part of the piece he was in. Top morning entertainment.
Geoff Capes. Budgies? This is how I felt a few years ago, watching dawn break at the end of our road whilst a huge storm rolled in at the other end, blacking out the morning sky. Battle budgies ahoy! Morning begins.
