Ahhhh ...

Lovely day. Pericles with pushdragon, including Marcus Graham with lots of chest showing, brilliant Japanese drumming and post-play chocolate, then lovely dinner with friends including crazed parrot. I had forgotten that Pericles contains pirates, the stupidest plot contrivances ever and the great clodhopping boots of the Exposition Fairy doing her version of Country Dancing, but you know, add some good drumming, great company and hot men, and I am prepared to forgive anything.

Minor dramas in between the play and dinner, including Mr Brammers taking to his bed with flu and having to find my way in Suburbia which would have been easier had the taxi not dropped me off a kilometre before the *actual* corner I wanted and had Suburbia believed that people should be able to walk in it, but the cake and I made it in reasonable time and condition.

And the walk was spent in pleasant cogitations on the fineness of Marcus Graham, to whit:

It really is a lovely day! Or, at least it was. The sun was out for .5 seconds this morning! \o/ I had actually half-contemplated going for a swim until the clouds moved back in.

I hope Mr Brammers gets better fast though!

I think I see where the emergency fitted in now :). Walking around that area would be rather tricky in the dark if you weren't certain where you were.

Glad the play was fun: Marcus Graham looks entirely fanciable and a proper subject for contemplating.

LOL

And a km is like 2 for you with your wee little leggies! ;)

Glad you had fun. Sorry about Mr B!

I have friends who went to see that last night!

Pet J for me, but save some for yourself too---I know it's almost worse to have a sick partner than to be sick yourself.

Not that I'm suggesting anything, you've had more than your fair share of the mucus fest, I think.

Mmmmm, Marcus Graham, I have always fancied him, he made an absolutely amazing Frank'n'Furter.

I have much love for a buff man in suspenders and a corset.

Glad you liked it. The shakuhachi had me completely entranced and I really, really want one *now* so I can take it travelling with me to annoy N with whilst I learn how to make pretty sounds.

Funny reading the conversation between yourself and autumnheart. Having lived at Mooney Mooney twice and Berowra for 7 years, and commuting to work in Leichhardt, I consider Meadowbank to be virtually inner city :) When I finished up at that job we ended up buying a house in the same bloody street in Leichhardt...
