We met up with David and Val and headed off to Tolethorpe Hall to see an open-air production of ‘Romeo and Juliet’.
Plan A was to take a picnic, but the weather forecast was predicted to be lousy so we decided instead to go to The George for a bite. Trying to book a table was tricky mainly because they didn’t start bookings until 7.30pm – too late for us!
But, after getting to Stamford, the weather turned really nice so we popped into Morrison’s to buy picnic food. The weather held…just…and Val managed to get a much-sought-after picnic table in the grounds. We had a fantastic picnic, ate far too much, but it was great!!!
The Play was excellent, only slightly marred by the sound of the Stamford Festival (three miles away) being carried by the wind. Hip-hop and Shakespeare don’t really go together :))
The Play finished around 11ish – we got home around 11.45.
I got into blogging quite late in life, not publishing my first post until 2004 – well into my 40s! My lifelong love of technology and communication (in all its forms), together with a fondness for the art of writing seemed to be the perfect combination to contribute a few words to the online community. But I’m no Samuel Pepys! If you’re looking for deep and meaningful comments on a variety of subjects, then you’ve arrived at the wrong site! I only pen for pleasure! On average, my posts appear about twice per month, covering family & friends, cinema visits, eating out, holiday experiences and techy stuff. Oh, and as this is my hobby, there are no sponsored links nor adverts here – it’s all done with love!
I hope you find it enjoyable, interesting and occasionally, even helpful!
