New Show Opening in West End (of Cambridge)...


J's drama class performed their end of term show today to a packed house of parents and younger sisters/brothers. The papparazzi were out in force to snap pictures of the stars. Audience reaction was wildly enthusiastic, although at times the show was scary! M&J were treated to Pizza Hut after the show (dad couldnt be stuffed cycling home and then cooking dinner). Little M's show is next week.

This week was the school trip to the beach Old Hunstanton...the weekend was spent purchasing buckets, spades etc. Both had a good time, although little M had the best weather (it wasnt actually raining) - poor J, who's class went the day after M's, had a day of rain and wind. It didnt seem to greatly affect their enjoyment of the beach though.

Big M is in Australia for the next couple of weeks, so a chance to leave the washing up till tomorrow and generally be slobs! Today I locked myself out of the flat for the nth time...only problem was the spare key was gone from its hiding place! I had to ring around the estate management people to find someone with a spare key then borrow sandals and a bike from next door to head into town and get it. It must have looked pretty funny - Alejandro is a fair bit shorter than me and it felt like a kids bike.

In case you are wondering none of us were anywhere near London, although there are plenty of people from Cambridge who work in London and wont be getting home tonight with the transport system in chaos. I know 2 people who are stuck there tonight.

Well I'm glad Little M had the good weather for the excursion this time. J had the good weather for the botanical gardens!

We were thinking of you yesterday.
