There’s an Elvis in my house!

Just that really Grin

There’s an Elvis festival locally and one Elvis is staying in my Airbnb spare room. I’m not even a fan but I’m weirdly excited. He’s just come down in full Elvis outfit and is now doing vocal warm ups... probably the coolest thing that has ever happened to me!

(Sorry for the pointless thread, just wanted to share with it someone but have no friends Sad)

I’ll ask when they come back - he’s just left, he’s competing this afternoon! I knew they were coming for the festival but didn’t realise they were actually in the competition.

P1nkHeartLovesCake, apparently it is! It’s just a few miles down the road from Barry, I haven’t been yet as only moved to Wales recently.

Aw I'm a huge Elvis fan - where is this convention you're talking about? I'm in Ireland and we have some small ones, but that sounds like a big deal. Please take a pic of your Elvis Grin

I thought this was going to be a typo and you meant there are elves in your house...
