| The British Summer Weather |
The
cold, windy, damp UK evenings have had an effect on Shirley Bassey's health. On
the second concert at Tatton Park the organizers announced: "Ladies and
Gentlemen, this afternoon we really thought the show was going to have to be
cancelled as Shirley Bassey is fighting a bronchial infection, but being the
true Capricorn that she is, she has decided that the show must go on."
The visitors reported that her voice was beautiful, clear and powerful as always, but she kept drinking hot lemon and honey.
She told the audience that they've been her medicine.
On the next concert she seemed to be fit again.
On the concert on July 20, at Ragley Hall, it sadly rained throughout the whole concert, and not all fans were prepared for the weather, but Shirley Bassey nevertheless performed un-irritated. She said: "I forgot to put my long-johns on!"
The next day at Belvoir Shirley Bassey joked that the visitors looked all well-wrapped up and "look at the bloody thing I've got on!", then adding "I think I need an anorak!"
