Where are you going tonight?

[mrkint]

I think it was, yes.

Sorry.

Kunta Kinte is spoken by Eddie Murphy as the Jew in the barber shop in 'Coming to America' - always wondered what it meant...

Oh, don't be chicken, George.

not tonight, but on saturday night, I'm going to the Octagon for Of Mice and Men. I only got the tickets because two had been returned. There are single seats for most nights, though a lot are sold out. The production is getting raves. If you want to see it move very quickly. If you want to see it sat next to a friend/partner - only luck will get you the seats...

Going away for the Weekend Tommorow.

Bought out the store in preparation, 5 Dr. Pepper Cans!

[Beefheart]

Gunna go watch the BBC Philharmonic tomorrow night at Bridgewater Hall. A bargain at £9.

[Bijou Bob]

Off to the theatre tonight for the first time in a couple of years. Pierrepoint in Lancaster, the story of Britain's last hangman. Not my choice but at a fiver a ticket, a cheap night out!

Let me how that goes. I'd quite like to go there too.

Not now, but Copenhagen in March. Long weekend.

Anything worth seeing?

Went a while ago but loved it.

Little mermaid is seriously underwhelming but has to be done.

Tivoli gardens on a Saturday night was good fun, the bars on Nyhaven harbour is a great way to spend a few hours and a lot of money. The water tours and the Resistance museum were both fascinating and the spiral tower they used to drive horses up (the name escapes me) is a good way to see the cityscape.

I may be a little biased as we had glorious weather whilst we were there in summer. I imagine it may be a bit colder for you

Went to see One man, Two Governors at the Theatre Royal, Haymarket. Quite compact, old school venue, packed out too, with the majority being old farts! This made me a bit apprehensive tbh, but i gave a tenner for two small plastic disposable cups of wine and sat down in our seats on the front row of the royal circle. Didnt know what to make of it really, we definitely enjoyed it, but it might just have been because it was a novel experience. That was my first ever proper play having only been to the odd musical or panto before. Im glad it was comedic, im not sure i could invest in a more dramatic play. Need to check one out, but don’t fancy another fifty quidder! It was funny, the songs were good, the actors were good, most had familiar faces, they were clearly enjoying themselves, add-libbing bits to catch their co-stars out, and giggling to themselves. Generated a good atmosphere.

One thing that really bugged me however, was the so obviously staged audience participation. They got this poor timid woman out of her seat on the front row and stood her on stage holding some prop or other (my mrs whispered straight away, ‘she’s an actress..’) but didnt believe her, because it was all very funny until she ended up covered in foam from a fire extinguisher! That spoiled the whole set up for me, and everyone else from what mutterings i deciphered at the bar in the interval. She even came out at the end for a courtesy. I felt like booing but didnt (bwfc fan you see) but that whole scene would have been so much better with a real punter. There were a couple of others too, like the sandwich thing but don’t wanna spoil it anymore. All in all a decent jolly.

Wahaca was ace too, mrs well impressed. We ate like Mexican realeza! couple of margaritas each too, and churro’s! absolutely stuffed. Also, when it came to paying the bill their computer system had gone down, so the waitress came and tried to add everything we’d had up by hand using the calculator on my phone, we obviously 'forgot' a couple of things and it came to about £45 No computer meant no card machines, and we only mustered £35 in cash between us so they let us off! result.

Mrs has this stupid thinig about travelling down escalators, she wont. So we had to walk up to Green Park which was the nearest tube station with lifts. Meant we could have a few beers round Mayfair after the show tho so we did that, then went home and took her up the shard...

Dorris and I went to watch the 39 Steps about a year ago. Was absolutely brilliant. You'll probably have seen the film, but I hadn't. Whole thing done by four actors. Can't recommend it enough. I googled it and it's on at the moment for what looks like a massive run, but you'd have to book well in advance as the only tickets available for the next few weeks at least are £60 :O ! I think we got some returns, or set aside 'on the day' tickets or something, but I'm sure we only paid £15 each. I'll find out.
