Day 199 - Jimmy Giggle Fever Hits Woden Plaza.


Today, thanks to Sue for telling me, Jimmy Giggle of 'Giggle and Hoot' fame on abc4kids, had a meet and greet at Woden Plaza. We thought it would be fun to go along as the girls love Giggle and Hoot. We met Mel and Patrick along with my mum this morning, in preparation for a Giggle fest.

Well apparently so did hundreds of other kids and their parents. While we were waiting, instead of getting in the line early and waiting with the kids for over 40 minutes we braved the rough little children's play area, which ended in tears for both Olivia and Ava, so it was time to then move on. Thanks to Jimmy Giggle for taking the stage not long after. I was hoping he would have done a little singing, but it was just a meet and greet.

I was grateful not to have lined up considering the girls more than likely wouldn't have gone near him. Even more grateful when we saw how long the line was. The line, for those who know Woden Plaza, zig zagged in front of donut king, around muffin break, along past the shops all the way down to SpecSavers. Where there was an estimated waiting time of 3 hours. No thanks.

A wave and a kiss blown to Jimmy Giggle was enough for the girls and I.

  2. The funny thing is Belinda, It is not a show you sit and watch it is spaced out between other shows on ABC throughout the day! We catch it late afternoon or before bed!
    Day 200, I wonder what you have planned, we have a birthday celebration.
