Last Two Hours!

Chris is now coming down the home stretch! Counting it down in minutes now. Everyone has been so kind and generous, we can't thank them enough. And thanks again to Vale Pianos for the brilliant instrument they've lent Chris.

There will be photos of the finale, and I will attempt a video.

This has been an amazing experience for all of us.

The support team has been sleeping in shifts, but Chris is still playing in hour 18, wow. Tesco's is perking up after a long and relatively quiet night. The cafe opens soon!

Hour Ten and Counting!

Checking in again at nearly hour ten! Still going strong and having a lot of fun with the different settings on the digital piano that Vale Pianos so generously donated for the piano marathon.

Reaching the halfway mark soon, it seems to be going by quite quickly!

Nearly to Hour Seven!

Chris is holding up well, playing nicely and the response from the shoppers and the store employees has been great. The rain is bucketting down here, and the flow of shoppers is slowing, but everyone is in a fine mood.

The evening will be interesting, see what happens...

Four Hours In!

It's been four hours since the piano marathon started and Chris is doing so well. Lovely people in Evesham and he even got a job offer!

Bit chilly here, but there is hot coffee and lots of nice people being very generous, so...all is well!

Back in a while...

Diana here... It was all working so well. The nice man at T-Mobile sold me a mobile broadband dongle and checked and said that there was no limit on uploads. Evidently not. Oh well, we got an hour's worth before fair usage kicked in. So, I will be updating here and on my Facebook page. I will attempt to take photos and upload them to the blog and will post every hour or so.

Thanks for your support!!

Chris (with Alun and Diana - the roadies).
