Hungerford Arcade has been extremely busy with customers from all over the country and the four corners of the globe. However, one face just stood out from the crowd. I could not believe it when I saw that it was the one and only singer/songwriter and actor, Will Young. Will loves the Arcade and visits us quite often his arms always full of lovely items that he is buying.
Today, when I saw Will, I decided that I must talk to him and he didn’t mind at all. In fact, he was marvellous. He showed us photographs on his iPhone of the beautiful ponies he has rescued and who now live on his big estate. Sheilah, a gorgeous shetland pony who is very small, stole his heart and I could see why. The ponies are very happy in their new home having acres of lush green land where they live, play and are very much loved.
Arcade stallholder Daniel Evans, was so excited. He told Will that the very first dance his mum and dad had was to Will’s song, Evergreen. Will said that is a lovely song and he seemed quite moved. Of course, Dan phoned his mother immediately and sent her a photograph of him with Will and she was over-the-moon. Stallholder, Philippa Harper was also in the photograph but unfortunately, I only have one of Dan and Philippa together because Dan went home with the photos on his phone! I will of course post it on here when I have it.
What a lovely story of your day!
