I am Alan Booth, an ordinary British Man . I'm not one of the famous people that have the same name as me, just an ordinary guy. Welcome to my main blog, a true reliable record of history from the perspective of an ordinary man, a place filled with my thoughts; perhaps my thoughts will persist longer on here than in my brain itself. My twitter I.D. is @alspresso.

Mariachi surprise
About a week ago on Saturday it was my birthday and I had a surprise birthday party.
At the end of the party, a band of 4 Mariachis crashed the party. They were dressed like old school Mexican musicians. Leather suits, guitars violins and sombreros. I was filled with surprise and amazement. They played music for me.
It was a feeling I will never forget. I was pleased to see them playing. One of them had a trumpet, the other sang, another had a guitar and the other had a violin. The music was happy, I was happy.
I will never forget this wonderful surprise for the rest if my life. I am grateful for this wonderful surprise and I am hopeful for more.
