We saw Norma and Eliza and The Gift band at Bridgwater Arts Centre on the 6th November. Norma was assisted on and off the stage by Martin, and sat to perform. She also announced that they 'don't do encores', because she didn't want to be getting up and down. All I knew for sure at that stage was that she had problems with her legs and had not been well for some time.

In spite of all that, she was in brilliant singing form - she and the heavily pregnant Eliza both were - and it was a wonderful show. She is such a brave lady!

We bought the CD, The Gift, and it is brilliant too.

I really hope she pulls through this - it would be an enormous loss to everyone if she didn't.
