George and Amal in Sweden tonight with Amnesty International and PostcodeLottery

Wait. Isn’t the Postalcode Lottery Gala tomorrow in Edinburgh?

Same organisation different country raising money for different charities where the lottery gives to some of the lottery winners while also giving to the chosen organisations...George was guest in Holland too a little while ago I think - it'll be on here somewhere... I think he said he likes the idea because it's a win/win system and wished it was in the States

That's what I read Donnamarie, they will probably fly to edinburgh tomorrow.

With Sweden's Foreign Secretary and John Prendergast tonight

Pan does this mean they don't have to be in Edinburgh?

No, that's tonight, Annemarie.

Here they are last night with all the other charities that benefitted from the lottery. Their award was for the Clooney Foundation

I can't see Amal missing an Award ceremony.

.............it's an opportunity to talk about all the good work that is being done isn't it? Not just for the red carpet froth..........

She's actually missed many when she was fighting legal battles in the places like the Maldives where her co-counsel was knifed in the head - and Egypt where she was trying to get journalist Mohammed Fahmy out of prison and back to Canada

Remember George talking to Stephen Colbert about it?

right  

I think it's great.  As her life moves on, she will have many things to keep her busy.

You may not realise this, Ladybug, but this lady ran training courses for judges worldwide on how to interpret international law..........not sure you can put that in the category of 'keeping busy'

What lady?

Ladybug Pan is talking about Amal. Amal is dedicated to her job and family. I think those things come before awards or galas in her life. Amal will I believe always be busy with her kids , husband family ,job and charities and everything else in her life.

I'm sure "Amal" is

PAN thanks for the background on George’s involvement in this event. I had forgotten...

On to Edinburgh

Thanks for all that information which I hope
will Shut Up all those Bizarre articles about
"The Clooney's are Splitting Up" etc etc.

It's obviously still "Bah Humbug !"

Mm, whenever I hear stuff like that I think of this
