Can't say I thought it was the best production we've seen (I have seen quite a few and son even more as he did it for A level English) but always enjoy going out to the theatre (especially when unexpected and free!). My son recognised the actor Edward Bennett who played Ferdinand as he was the much lauded Hamlet who had to step in for David Tennant last year. Really good of certain theatres to give away tickets if the place isn't heavily booked.
Wish I'd known you were coming too! Met up with bevvy and 5rannoch and we all sat together in the quite empty Dress Circle!

Beate, I did put a message somewhere that we'd be at The Tempest. We saw Marialionza as we were all in the stalls.

I miss the social life - far more stress free than working life but I don't miss studying or the exams at all. :nono: And I will NEVER miss that. I miss all the partying and fun though. Now I feel too old and fuddy duddy to do all this stuff especially when I see the new uni students.

I wish I knew about free movies back then though! :rolleyes:

That's because your OH is a bundle of fun! AND he lets you have your own way in everything! You should be having more fun now than before!
