🎶Donny’s Autobiography ‘Life is Just What You Make It’ 2005 📚📓📖

Posted on September 10, 2025 by tinamckenzie.blog

The place is Waterstones Guildford UK, needed to get there that evening, Donny was signing his new book ‘Life is Just What You Make It‘. Arrived with friend Debbie & of course had to queue, it went up two floors and outside, everyone was passing & asked who was inside ! 🤔We queued for a while, got to the steps below floor Donny was on, about 6 people in front of us and then told Donny had to leave !😂 WHAT, how was that happening ! We hovered for ages, no sign of him coming downstairs, the shop Manager said Donny would sign some copies of his book so leave your address & will post a copy to us 😥 not quite the same is it, but oh well sure Donny didn’t want to go but maybe it was important he had to leave !🙁 Maybe saw me coming & thought best go !! Only joking !! Did catch him going into his car, very quickly !😖
So disappointed, so close yet so far but Donny doesn’t like to upset his fans so there must have been a reason, maybe ask him ONE DAY ! 💋💕💕 xx

And here it is & STILL on my bookcase !! 😘📚📓Goodnight Everybody xx

Donny here sooon 🎶🎼🆒 xx

Today’s the DAY ! 🎵 xx

BIC BOURNEMOUTH taken from Pier 🎶

Well…. it’s the morning after a FANTASTIC Show with the ONE & ONLY DONNY 💋💜, he’s amazing, brilliant, very entertaining as so many fans know 💋 it was a packed BIC BOURNEMOUTH (on the South Coast) last night. On the morning of the Concert I drove to Bournemouth (only hour away) & was to meet my friend Hilde who I haven’t seen for 35 years from Norway to watch the show. Hilde was out shopping so I walked along the Beach & Pier as the weather had brightened up, actually I wondered if Donny had arrived yet so passed the BIC just incase ! No luck ! Walked back to hotel after I heard from Hilde, lovely seeing her, went for lunch & wondered around shops, on way back passed through the BIC for coffee & yes Donny was in the building, ‘Crazy Horses’ sounding good ! Wanted to sneak in but that was a NO NO ! Time had come to go back to hotel, change & have dinner, we then entered the foyer filled with VERY EXCITED fans ready & waiting for him, ( DONNY STILL DOES IT !), we collected our VIP goody bag, we took our seats, Row C, a fantastic view of the stage, worth paying extra for these seats ! Anytime for him eh….! ( 👎the only frustrating thing on the night were the ‘purple cards’….thought we would ALL get the chance to write on a card but only random cards were given out….VERY disappointing !!!👎 ) Then it was time, OH MY, OH MY, AMAZING, AMAZING, what can you say about Donny performing! ALL NIGHT PLEASE! 💋💜 ( did see instructions to use ‘Concert APP’ but Donny was soooo close I couldn’t take my eyes off him, sorry Donny I didn’t use it ! )

Hilde & I were VERY excited….nearly time !

These following photos show what a fantastic evening it was xxx🎶🎼🎵🆒

Lovely items in Goody Bag, wonder who will ‘doggie walk’ with me now with that hat & scarf !! he he !!

DVD recording just been announced, will be brilliant to see Concert again, & again, & again ! **Recorded Birmingham Concert, the last night of Tour**

Thank you Donny for touring the UK, made us all feel young again ! Hopefully see you again VERY soon 🎶🎼🎵xxxx (I’m writing this blog during early hours after Concert, cannot sleep, see what you do Donny !!)

ONE LAST & STRANGE THOUGHT….. my ‘Facebook Memory’ on this Exact same Date 4 years ago at same Place was this:-

NOW that’s another BLOG, maybe have a look…. 🎶🎼🎵xx

ANNOUNCEMENT MADE: Friday JULY 14th DVD release…yes ! Hopefully Donny will be over to UK to promote DVD, not sure if that will happen ?

*** Short TOUR UK again maybe planned 2018 ? start saving NOW ! 💋***✈✈✈

Goodnight everybody xx 🕺🏻💜🕺🏻💜🕺🏻💜

🕺🏻💃🏻Donny and Marie ‘Deep Purple’ Vinyl LP April 1976 – My Prize as a runner-up 🥳

Status

Playing my Osmond Vinyls was ok but the bass not sounding good, was it the overall performance of the record player, was it the speakers, was it the cartridge needle ? 🎵 So recently bought a unit that a record player could be out on display & use my vinyls, wow what a difference, the overall sound quality is amazing, guess I’ll be busy listening to all those songs once more ! I counted my Osmond LP’s & there are lots of them, so let’s go !! 🎶 It’s amazing how you remember most of the words, did I really play them a lot when younger, the answer is a big YES !!🕺🏻💃🏻

The reason for headline ‘Deep Purple’ vinyl LP was the reason I’m blogging again, I came across a letter I think dated around 1976 in the sleeve of this vinyl, about a competition I was a runner-up in ‘Osmonds’ World’ Magazine, to be honest I’ve tried to remember what the competition was about, letter mentions results were published in the magazine but all these years on I do not remember ! 😂 I did buy all the copies but no longer with me ! Anyone out there have copies still of the magazine around ‘76, would you be able to check what was published ? Would be a great help X🕺🏻💃🏻👍

🥳Competition letter received, very exciting !

🎶 Remembering those songs 🎶

🎵To all of you who still have their Osmond Vinyls, keep playing & enjoying them !🎵

Goodnight Everybody ! xx

The Osmonds’ Musical at New Theatre, OXFORD UK 26 Feb 2022 🎼🎤🎸🎷💙🧡🖤💚💜💋❤️💛🎼🎤🎸🎷

Status

What a complete surprise sprung on me this weekend by my lovely girls X 👏They treated me to a lovely lunch in Oxford & then announced that right opposite the restaurant was ‘The New Theatre’ & they have tickets to watch ‘THE OSMONDS’ MUSICAL’ after lunch 👏👍😘🎉 What a wonderful surprise, had no idea. I had seen an Interview recently with Jay talking about the Musical which he has written & watched a performance by the ‘Osmonds’ which was pretty cool & knew they were touring the UK at the moment and seen mentions on Twitter every now & then but that was it !👍🥰🎤🎼🎷🎸***I had wondered what would it be like to watch a performance when it’s not the actual Osmonds, BUT after that Show which was amazing, all those memories, what an afternoon that was, thank you girls xx***🥰

**MY BEAUTIFUL GIRLS….BIRTHDAY TREAT X**🥰🎉

END OF THE SHOW👏🎉🎼🎤🎸

💕Donny Osmond Guest Celebrity on ‘Your Face Sounds Familiar’ June 2013 🕺🏻🕺🏻🕺🏻🕺🏻🕺🏻

Posted on September 7, 2025 by tinamckenzie.blog

Saturday 29th June 2013 – The last two weeks have been exciting here in UK as Donny, Debbie & Joshua have been visiting, Donny’s twitter page has been quiet during this time but hey, they deserve a break ! Donny did post a lovely photo of Debbie & himself in Regent Street, London but also informed us of a new show starting that week which he would be ‘Celebrity Guest’ on the Judging panel, called ‘Your Face Sounds Familiar’, at Elstree Studios. I check a website called SRO Audiences often (especially when any Osmonds are here) to check certain shows that they may appear on, ‘Loose Women’ being one of them ! I thought I would check this new programme & if it was on the website & yes it was, so I applied for tickets & hoped for the best ! The next day Donny tweeted the same website address as fans had been asking where to get tickets, I was quite chuffed I had already applied ! The choice of tickets were for Wednesday evening, a pilot show not to be aired & Saturday evening, a live show, both evenings Donny would be present ! I was very pleased to get my tickets for Saturday & I let everyone know I had some ! I thought Andy would enjoy the show so he decided to come (he does put up with a lot from me !) & I invited Angela & her daughter Eloise came too.

Saturday came, I arranged to meet Angela & Eloise there, but whoever got there first to get in the queue as we had ‘Priority Tickets’ so I wasn’t sure if that meant we had to be there early or we would get in anyway, confusing !! Could not chance NOT getting in with Donny in the building !! Everything was good getting in ( just a slight annoying issue just before going in with a mix up of blue & red wristbands ! ) but we were in ! Warm Up man Andy entertained us & introduced the

judges, Emma Bunton, Julian Clary & Donny ! He received a massive cheer, a lot of the audience were there to see only him, oh & maybe the show ! Donny took photos of the audience & published them on his facebook later, which included hubby Andy, you cannot see me ! Well done Andy, your claim to fame & link to Donny ! See what I mean about him putting up with me !

The show went well for the hour, Donny made Cheryl Ferguson’s day by hugging her, she couldn’t speak ! The show finished & Donny spoke, thanking us for the reception he received, ( I was so hoping for a song ) it was time to go for all of us, what an evening, just to be in the same room as Donny is so special X. Thank you Donny, it was great to be at the show & the opportunity to see you again, see you again soon xx

Goodnight Everybody !
