Build me up buttercup... by judithg

Build me up buttercup...

I took a few slightly off the wall photos on Friday. Just before this one I took a professional photographer with a huge tripod and up a very long ladder. He is looking quite sternly at me in one shot but started laughing when he realised I was taking his photo. I wished him luck in trying to make the boring shopping arcade look attractive. These two characters were singing songs for people in the Glee genre. They chose 'Build me up buttercup for me' and were rewarded with a rather measly amount for their chosen charities - everything I had on me but when I looked in their bucket it was full of notes - what good boys! Don't miss the play along keyboard!
Three good things:
1. Mad people doing things for charity
2. The igloo that kept Monty entertained on Jesus Green
3. Friday evening alone in the house with a ready meal and the TV buttons.
loving number 3 thats me tonight lol

That's a great story! Those two are rather animated during their performance. Fun stuff

When I saw the title, I thought it referred to their yellow tops! They look like a lot of fun and this is a nice pic of them

gr8 song choice judith. I think they are being a tad 'camp' (I mean that in a respectful way) with their expressions for your camera

@phil_howcroft Oh I don't think they'd be offended by 'camp' - they were rocking camp!

What an amusing shot, they look like real characters, doing great works for charity by the sound of it.

I'd have loved to have heard that. It's one of those songs I 'have' to sing along to...although I'm sure everyone else wishes I wouldn't ;o) xx
