Out and About

The cinema trip on Saturday wasn’t my only outing over the last few days; in fact I have been out and about quite a bit. I have been swimming at David Lloyd and on Friday it started snowing while I was in the outdoor pool which was great fun and looked very pretty. We had our lovely neighbours Paul and Carmelle round for lunch on Friday; their first baby is due on 18th March so it’s a very exciting time for them. 

Then on Friday evening I went with Gordon to the Rocky Horror Show at the King’s Theatre. It was sold out and really good; I haven’t seen it since the 1980s so I had forgotten how much fun it is. The music was great and the actors were all excellent; the narrator in particular was very funny when interacting with the audience. We were all singing along with all of the songs, and dancing to the Time Warp. I hadn’t dressed up but lots of people were wearing stockings and basques, mainly men! It was a very happy evening.

Yesterday James was away hill-walking so after a leisurely morning I decided to head into town to buy a new tray for the kitchen and some clothes for my upcoming holiday to Dubai. James messaged me when he got home; “not like you to do a girly thing like going into town!” which is mostly true of me, but I must have 1% of shopping genes in me because just occasionally I do like to browse around a few shops by myself. It was a successful trip and I enjoyed myself.
