International Women’s Day

Morag pointed out this evening that it was appropriate on International Women’s Day that we went to see a play with an all women cast. This was “Pride and Prejudice (sort of)” which we saw at the Theatre Royal with Morag and Gordon. It was good fun, and a pretty good rendition of the plot. It fitted in with the current trend for plays with a small cast and many costume changes, like Operation Mincemeat. However I think that Operation Mincemeat is better because it has original songs. “Pride and Prejudice (sort of)” had some very funny moments though, and it was very well received by the audience.

Also appropriately for International Women’s Day, I spent time with an amazing woman when I took Gran Jan for a run in the car up the Clyde Valley today. We had a tasty brunch in Rosebank Garden Centre, and a nice browse around the plants. Janet was telling me lots of stories about our family, which were fascinating.
