Byron got divorced.

Oddly enough, his daughter ( ada ) helped shape the computing revolution.

Pushkin had a beautiful wife. His poetry is very similar to Byron, witty and full of humour.

It is only sad for Lensky. But at the end it is kind of unresolved. I am sure Onegin will find a partner in life.

Ho Lord B.  I was assuming that you are still in the married state before your divorce.
Cheers

You know, I was a student in London about a century ago, and I was very near to Regent's Park but I have never been to the outdoor theatre... is it really worth it?

I must consider it this summer if it is.

I've seen Pushkin's school in...Pushkin (Tsarskoye Selo), outside St Petersburg, where the Catherine Palace is.

I used to live so close to the Open Air Theatre that I could hear the music when there was any. Last year my son went to Midsummer Night's Dream* there and enjoyed it very much. It's wonderful, but can be cold!

*The play, not the opera.

St Petersbutg is beautiful. The season in theaters in summer and one cannot see opera and ballet house.

It is good to be outside, but one has to bring a nice pillow to be comfortable, and warm cloths.

Happiness is to travel and see interesting places.

The Amber Room in the Catherine Palace is most astonishing, like a fairy tale invention. It's made of real amber panels.

St Petersbutg is European city. Moscow is more Russian city.

Big Hall in Moscow Conservatory (they have a small hall too).


I am happy, because I am finished for today. I have In tune programme with lovely pianist playing Debussy Study. Bliss.
