Our photo shoot went well. although having it on one of the hottest days of the year wasn't exactly brilliant! We got some really great shots, albeit not very Christmassy, and despite the fairies getting up to their usual mischief . As you can see here I had to drag the flower fairy out of the flower bed on more than one occassion, and a certain fairy had her nose in her newspaper the whole time. The end results were pretty good though, and I did manage a snuggle up to Santa too, although the poor chap was a bit hot in his lovely red suit. I think he'll be very glad to get back to sleep until the autumn!

Fairy lights up Bath! Well, one little part of it anyway. Here's a small preview, with some of the fairy lights, some of the cast and our lovely Santa. It was a bit flat the next couple of days after filming, not to mention a bit weird with all the lights and decorations that took a few days to sort out. But now we're looking forward and planning marketing , ready for a big launch later in the year.

It's a wrap! Filming day is over. Can't really believe it, after all these months of preparation. All over and done with so quickly. It was a great day though, we had a lot of fun, and everything went very well, with no problems. This is a shot of the crew, taking a very well-earned break from fairyland. The house has been decorated and lit with fairylights for five days now, we're getting to like it and will miss them when they finally go. I haven't the energy to take them down tonight!

It's a great feeling though.

Here are our trusty sound guys, Alan and Andy. They've been very patient and encouraging, and recorded all of us. The second session was tonight. Now they have the tricky job of putting it all together and making us sound brilliant!

What's this, a Christmas tree in the house in June? Yes, the decorations are going up for the video filming on Tuesday. We actually have to start tonight filming a few shots of Betty as she can't make it on Tuesday. So Christmas will be here for a few days yet!

Dress rehearsal ( almost) today, lots of laughing , a bit of dancing and some singing, a very amused and confused press photographer and a flock of fabulous funky feminine fairies. ( It's a pity pink doesn't begin with F because we are very, very pink!)

Here's the first public sighting of the terrific TG Treetoppers.

How many fairies does it take to change a lightbulb? Just one, if she heeds the elf warning!

That's one of the jokes that didn't make the final cut for the video. Some of those let in are actually funny! It's a relief to have finished it though, and therefore finalise the enormous list of props to be found and made, and it's only ten days to go, and I'm away for three of those. Ho Hum! Or is that Santa's line?

What's this? Fairy lights of course! The house is filling up with them ready for the filming of the video. I've been working like mad on the storyboard, and have finally finished, I think. Just have to do lots of copies now so that everyone knows what they're doing. We have three volunteers to help with the filming, so hopefully we can be quite organised . Ha!

Next I must turn my attention to the props. No-one seems to be able to come up with a pink plate, so it looks like a trawl round the charity shops is called for next week. The vacuum cleaner arrived to day from Dyson, so thanks to them. What are we going to do with it? Wait and see!
