May only be a couple more of these posts before I close the book on this chapter. But yesterday we shared a wonderful day at the UK premiere of the film that has been such a remarkable surprise for us.

Yesterday was another reminder of how blessed I am, and how lucky we are. 16 months after we shot the film and we took over 21 people to our first public screening on these shores. And you can say what you want about Luton, but it’s thanks to Luton, and the people there that we could do that. And, in Luton. We do festivals right.

I don’t want to go into what I didn’t like about yesterday, from a festivalgoer/filmmaker point of view because it will detract from how humbled I was, and how much I want to thank those people that came out.

It meant so much to me, from those who attended to those couldn’t but sent love, to realise how supportive, loving and good my friends and family are. Beautiful.

The only real downer was Steve missing it, which sucked, but in all in all, it couldn’t have been better. So thank you. It’s been an amazing 14 months and yesterday was some damn tasty icing.
