We went to the theatre, little realising that death awaited us with big pointy teeth and a vicious streak a mile wide...

But enough about Seryn.

*runs for cover*

Yes, Spamalot was good fun (though they could have done a little more rewriting for this production rather than just swopping London's West End for Broadway) and we had a fine meal to boot.

Altogether now...

We dance wherever we're able.
We do routines and chorus scenes with footwork impecc-able.
We're opera mad in Camelot
We sing from the diaphragm a lot.#

um..I like to push the pram a lot?

I'm glad you had a great time and good food! Though, did ANYONE take any pictures?

Sean: you ROCK!!!

I got two boxes today. One with blackcurrant jam (which is AWESOME timing as I just finished my last jar) and the other had CANDY!!!!

The jam roll thingies are tasty.

I was going to offer my servies to you ladies, but it seems that my dear Seryn is mailing Christmas cards out to the whole 'verse except for me, and I will be too busy pouting to consider a faux marraige, no matter how very appealing the idea of pulling one over on BigGov is for a passive aggressive revolutionary such as myself.

Perhaps if you got in your cheerleader uniforms and showed me a shiny cheer about FAUXSEX?

Jack didn't do anything wrong - He's a wonderful, marvellous, fabulous, gorgeous... handsome... er... talented.... fantastic person.

I realised i hadn't sent a card off to you, i also realised that i hadn't got Cozens address and that was why there were unclaimed bits sitting on the table at home while i was in the post office que.

But i promise, huge wonderful cards will find their way into the post after the christmas post free for all has subsided, wishing you both very merry (un)christmasses and begging you not to hate me.

I'm dim, but surefly that makes me more lovable? Somebody say yes please?

The Nook looks very pretty with its twinkly lights. And oi Mr Who, can it - don't be giving away my secrets.

The show was brilliant - the bit with the black night and the rabbit and stuff like that was well done (clever enough to go look! is that a plane?!? in order to make the trickery so much funnier) with some amusicng songs and stuff added in, one of the actors look so much like Alan Tuyk it was really funny (good news! there are two guys on the planet that look like Alan!) and even the rent-a-diva was amusing.

Bad news though - i thought to take my camera (i didn't read your post before i went) but i didn't think they would allow photography so in the end i didn't - so no photo's ;( But apparently a few of the songs from the night we saw it were show in the royal variety performance show on tv, so i'm going to ask around and see if anyone recorded it, and if anyone else has the ability to extract the Spamalot bits so i can send them to you.

Or keep an eye on youtube to see if any clips turn up there...

fingers crossed.

In the meantime, ask away with any questions.

oh! had to mention the bit where they 'travelled' to find the grail - two guys came on wrapped up in a very long sheet of fabric painted with different scenes, and one guy twizzed to unwind while the other twizzed to wind it up - while the knights pranced and clapped their coconuts in front - it was just what every stage show should have.

Isn't sanity really a one trick pony, anyway? I mean all you get is one trick, rational thinking! But when you're good and crazy...ooh hoo hoo hoo... the skys the limit!

Oh, gorram it all, I forgot to give out my home address.

Right.

4th cardboard box 'neath the Gardiner Expressway, West of Leslie St., Toronto. Sorry, but no postal code available, something to do with not being recognised as an official street address in situations that don't allow for property tax collection.

Bear in mind that Canada Post's delivery schedules are lax, at best.

Here's a terrific idea: let's all start a Browncoat Charity for the purpose of allocating dvd players to the Canadian homeless.

Oh, you daft Brits, you!

I didn't want pictures of Spamalot! You should NEVER EVER try to take pictures during a performance of any kind (isn't that right, cozen?)

I wanted "This is us at the restaurant" and "This is us in front of the theatre" pictures and "Here's a picture of the weird guy singing songs at us in the tube" type pictures.

I think you all owe me a song to make up for it.

Sorry Serenity but I just don't think we're that sort of people.

Actually, I can't stand photos most of the time. Maybe the occasional one but otherwise? Meh.

Still, we were probably captured on CCTV at numerous points so if you speak to the guards...

yeah - i'm pretty sure they've got Stuart tagged as deviant and watch him wherever he goes - loads of photo's.


(what? Dr Evilwho? they're on to you you know...)

I promise if we ever do anything else we'll grimace our way through a couple of photo's. Or the boys will, seeing as its my camera, i'd have to be taking the photo's.
