Ladles and Jelly Spoons! It’s your mate Tim Dowd here, Living With MS in Tenerife, and this Freaky Friday was an absolute cracker!
We had sunshine, we had banter, and we had Webby in his pyjamas (don’t ask). We kicked things off at the Monte Cristo with over 100 lovely folks joining us live—and it only got livelier from there.
I was joined by Tiny Tony from Green’s Adventures (who got Pixar’d LIVE on stream!), plus special shoutouts to our community legends like Webby Boom, Siobhan, Angry Velo, and the fabulous folks who helped push Stephanie’s fundraiser past her goal—THANK YOU!
We talked tech, Tenerife weather, content creation tips, football (of course!), and why hotel workers are striking (don’t panic—it’s still paradise here).
Oh, and if you’re wondering about Paddy the Baddie’s gloves and how much they’re worth—yes, we talked about that too! Gloves off, people!
So grab a cuppa (or a pint), smash that LIKE, SUBSCRIBE, and join us for the best community livestream on the island.
Much love from sunny Tenerife!
Tim
