    Morning all (barely!), how are we doing today?

    I have booked some tickets to go see King Lear on Friday in the Abbey, woo! And I have some fun stuff to do after work tomorrow and a night to do nothing tonight. Oh but I am a bit sick...sad times. I have a horrible cough, if it's not shifted or at least quietened down by Friday I may be evicted from the Abbey :eek:

    You're in for a treat, its wonderful

    Yep, it's the John Hurt one. It's sold out now but we booked our tickets ages ago, because we're nerds. We only realised yesterday our tickets were for Opening Night! I am beside myself with excitement :o:D

    The hype about Lear is genuinely well-deserved. So many good actors in it. You'll have such a good time!


  • Moderators, Social & Fun Moderators, Regional East Moderators, Regional North West Moderators Posts: 12,345 Mod ✭✭✭✭miamee


    I love the buzz of opening nights and seeing who is there on top of getting to see something new. So exciting, enjoy! :D

    Came home to find a missed delivery notice from DPD. But I haven't ordered anything that I'm aware of. So either it's the wrong house or someone sent me Gwyneth's head.

    Or maybe that Nigerian prince was telling the truth
