Team Dinner At Brunello Restaurant Baglioni Hotel





Wow what a fast week last week was .... almost my Birthday and I got an early Birthday Present: a emc3 team dinner at sumptuous Brunello Restaurant . What great variety of food and wine we had there . Thank you Lisa Marshall & the Baglioni Team. Will be sad to see Luca Vigilio go . But we'll see you in Monte Carlo Amico .
In these precarious times very important to gee up the Staff. Got a tad messy at the end though , 12 lemoncellos later we ended up at Electric . Well it was my fault :-)

My Birthday week should be interesting ...... lots more business would be a nice gift ;-)

Score4Africa At The House Of Lords,NO 5 & Bungalow 8





Wow this really is Black History Month .We went to my Cousin Ayo's ( Thanks Cous) Event to raise funds for African Football Acadamies at the House Of Lords . My Guests were the Great Olorogun Oskar C.J . Ibru aka Skido , the rising Stars VV & Gabriel Ibru. Later on we joined my lovely Wife and her Friends at the newly Refurbished NO 5 whence the young guns bounced on to Bungalow 8 where Stella McCartney & Christina (2WICE in a week) Aguilera were having a Party........

Comedy Night





Our comedy acts agent Dan really put on a great show on last wednesday . His acts had Alistair & I crying with laughter at his Dinner Function at the Marriot Hotel . Even funnier was to see Alistair the brunt of every other joke ...tee hee. Yes they were too scared to pick on me :-) One even said I had kind eyes and if I was to glass him I would probably only use a 1/2 pint glass. Especially funny was the Jack Black look-a-like . Thank you Maria ...... x

Africa Rising Africa Unite

What a great event ......near year EMC3 will have presence there behind the scenes !!!

Africa Rising "Unity makes a community strong."

Sometimes magnificient things happen to you without your prior knowledge or control.That is what happened when I got a text from my good Friend Ola Joshua offering me 2 tickets for Africa Rising Concert, organised by this day's Nduka Obaigbena . It was so fantastic to see a well orchestrated event that included MCing from Trevor Nelson & Adora Oleh , music by D'BANJ ,the Fabulous Seal, {space} the Mesmerising Youssou N'DOUR, 2 FACE , ASA & the 1/2 Colombian beauty Christina Aguilera......Fashion was produced by the 1 & Only Ozwald Boateng and newcomers Momo and Chris Aire. Lots of talent there! The Speech by the WISE General Colin L.Powell (RET) was inspirational. Come on OBAMA{backspace}!!!! Thank you God for allowing us to be part of this great African Movement . Still think I could have done a better job & got better PR (eg CNN & BBC). Mr Nduka ....you need me. Maybe next time ?

Estefania In Dordogne







Whilst I was looking after my Niece and the Cats ...my Beau Estefania was in France with her great friends, Penny & Wendy (back from LA) at a Swedish twin friend’s birthday. Their Chateux looked good though.....wonder what the Girls got up with all those Lord fla flas ............

Weekend in the sun




What a lovely sunny week-end it was ...... With Estefania away near Bordeux in France at a Friend's Birthday Party in a Private Chateux: I chilled with my Niece Dylan - cycling and visiting the hotspots by the river and Royal Festival Hall where the entertainers always seem to put a smile or laugh on all faces. To top it all the 11th of October was my dear late Mother Princess Ibienebo Mogbeyi Adoki Epega's birthay. May her soul rest in peace . I have a feeling it s going to be a great month x

Boys & Toys

Atlthough I was invited my our Lovely Financial Brokers Clients BGC to all day driving experience of Cobras, {space}Aston Martins,Ferraris & Mini Cars - I could’nt go :-(
So I kindly gave the vouchers to Alistair & Daniel . Did they bring any pictures back of their white knuckle experience ? Yet to be seen ......... Jokers ;-0
Thank you Alex, Jenny & Francesca for the joy x

Can t stop raving about the Wedding .....






May God be with you and bless you;
May you see your children's children.
May you be poor in misfortune,
Rich in blessings,
May you know nothing but happiness
From this day forward.

May the road rise to meet you
May the wind be always at your back
May the warm rays of sun fall upon your home
And may the hand of a friend always be near.

May green be the grass you walk on,
May blue be the skies above you,
May pure be the joys that surround you,
May true be the hearts that love you.


GREAT TO SEE YOU WENDY FROM LA . Shoreditch House on a Monday Night is a tough one though x

Hip Hip Hurray To The Bride & Groom
