I'm sorry I wasn't able to join (and meet!) you all on Friday.  Theoretically I was free, but had been travelling that day and in the end just didn't feel up to it.

Glad you all had a good time.  Eerie, glowing eyes are an indication of having a good time, yes?

No, just an indication of far too long spent peering at monitor screens Roll Eyes

On second thoughts, are you sure it's not a rehearsal shot from Reiner's new production of From the House of the Dead?

 Grin  Grin  Grin

I'm insisting on shaven heads in that as per Penal Colony rules... I am delighted to see that several of those gathered had made prior preparation, and appeared ready-shorn "on top" for the occasion!

Sorry I couldn't join you all - I was, err, "washing my hair" that evening  Wink

(we did manage a mini-r3ok-meeting at The Harlequin before Verdi's MACBETH at Sadler's Wells last Sat, however... attended by Il Grande Inquisitore, Ruth, and myself, with guest-of-honour Sveta Sozdateleva (Lady Macbeth) appearing for a pint of Guiness after the show too Smiley ).

It was indeed freezing but all were doughty and withstanding withal -great to be there Cool. I wonder if a laid-back restaurant somewhere might work even better for the next?

Good to meet people again.  Like Martle I find it easier to remember handles than names.

Rather surprised to be at all alive on Saturday, and went busking for a couple of hours to clear the head.  It was all going fine until several hundred santas appeared.  One of them gave me a sprout.

NB

(Woo-hoo!  Three stars!)

It`s a fair bet that one of the sprout bearing Santas wasn`t Mart. Lord knows what you were inbibing on Friday NB, but it appears to have great staying power!

Richard, tinners (wearing a little more than just a t-shirt) and Don Basilio discuss important affairs of state and new directions in Rumanian opera production...
I wasn't aware of having been caught on camera, but if memory serves, we were at that very moment discussing the intersection of Christianity and Marxism. I kid you not.

And yes, I was (for once in my life) wearing more than just a T-shirt. Where does martle get these ideas from?
