A grand day out
Thanks so much for all your comments on my long, rambling post about the hospital visit. I am almost 100 per cent again now, though still a bit appetite-suppressed: always hungry, but not really wanting to eat anything much.
Thursday, in celebration of our 10th wedding anniversary, the wife and I went to the theatre to see Othello at The Globe, as previously mentioned in this post. Pictures will follow.
The theatre itself was magnificent and the play was great, with a really gripping, compelling last act, and the performances were solid all round. Afterwards we met the man in the title role, Mr Eamonn Walker himself, had a chat with him in the bar for a good five minutes, possibly ten, talking about his film choices, locations he's worked in, and things like that. He then humoured us with some photos and an autograph. A real gent of a man.
A great day was had by all.

SAIHEEEEEED!...man that is awesome. I hope you get back up on your horse.
Glad to see you're back on your feet!!
Hey, so you were strong enough to carry your lady out of the door on your anniversary, GREAT!
Looking forward to the pictures :)
Happy 10th!!!
Happy Anniversary to you and your wife! Othello is such an amazing play.
Glad a good time was had by all!
happy anniversary!! i'm so glad you enjoyed othello
and i'm STILL jealous :)
There's a critic who argues Othello is basically a gay love story, but I dunno. Desdemona is a pretty weak character but Iago's hatred is more akin to that of a stalker than a lover...
Glad you're on the mend.
