Yes, we went to the pantomime. Peter Pan or at least a modern update. The cast were fabulous and very hardworking, the jokes were mostly corny but we never stopped laughing, the theatre was full with very few masks to be seen and the audience were extremely noisy joining in when prompted or just when they felt like it. Our very grown up offspring were quite possibly the noisiest ones there and Jack danced in the aisle. He was probably hoping to be discovered but sadly it wasn’t to be. We had a very tasty meal prior to the main event in the Cote Brasserie, definitely a good way to start our family Christmas.
Covid marches on relentlessly, although you wouldn’t have realised down in the Pavilion tonight. Latest research suggests that the Omicron variant will be less severe than previous ones and be much less likely to require hospitalisation. That’s good, I think. Also a professor (not sure of what, maybe social media!) has stated that he thinks the pandemic will be behind us by the spring. I’ve heard that one before. I’m going to do what I can while I can and wait and see what tomorrow brings.
I would like to wish my step daughter in law Marie a very happy retirement as she took the plunge to finish her official working life today. I’ve no doubt that Marie will find plenty to do and be absolutely happy doing it. Congratulations and happy retirement to her.
The Harry and Megan show have released their official family group Xmas card. Nice looking kids but the picture looked very contrived. Except for the baby they were all wearing ripped or faded jeans. Surely they can afford some new ones or maybe they’re hoping that someone will start up a gofundme page. Yes, I’m sure that must be it otherwise it just doesn’t make sense. Hadn’t heard anything about them for ages and I can’t say I’ve missed them.
Never managed to post this on the day I wrote it. Absolutely too knackered yesterday after dinner, panto and drinks after – them not me. Upwards and onwards and hey people, let’s be careful out there. 🌲 😘 🌲
