A bit there in white just in case your next line is "we're there tomorrow!"
Ha Ha no we went on Christmas Eve and thoroughly enjoyed it, we have been going traditionally every Xmas Eve to watch these pantos for the last 10 years, and Tam Ryan has been excellent every time. Hope you enjoyed it

Re: Where are you going tonight?
Oh, yeah, loved it! I took my own daughter for many years and saw lots of stars there over the years (Arthur Askey, Les Dennis, Tommy Cooper I think, Les Dawson and Michael Barrymore to name a few) but then there was a hiatus until the grandchildren came along and we're now doing it all over again. Fabulous night out and a highlight of my year.twilight wrote:clapton is god wrote:Certainly was. We thought it not quite as good as previous years.

Re: Where are you going tonight?
Today was the opening of the Ma Vlast festival, RNCM's long weekend of chamber music originating from Czech/Slovak territories...
And I and my wife escaped the horrors of the world for nearly three hours, with Dvorak string quartets and Janacek's song cycle The Diary of One Who Disappeared.
The first were sombre, majestic, light and frivolous in turn. and always delightful - I love Dvorak. The second is the story of an illicit love affair between a young plough-boy and a gypsy woman, full of the joys of sex, guilt and betrayal. Beautifully sung. and, it seems, motivated by an obsessional love affair of his own. Wiki says: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Diary_ ... isappeared" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
Our self-declared Year of Live Music takes another happy step...

You're making me pine for NYC, Kinty. Can't get back there soon enough.

Re: Where are you going tonight?
I'm not a city man myself. I think most city skylines, especially New York, are hideous.
My opinion of course so each to their own.

Re: Where are you going tonight?
Indeed, Malc. I'm very much a city man (with the exception of Las Vegas) that can't be doing with beaches or beach resorts (because they're all like Las Vegas). Post on, Kintymalcd1 wrote:I'm not a city man myself. I think most city skylines, especially New York, are hideous.
