After many, many years of trying and failing to get tickets for a recording
of "I'm Sorry I Haven't A Clue", I have finally succeeded - and (deities
willing) be at the London Coliseum on May 7th.
I can die happy. Well, after May 8th I can.
Au Res.,
Paul

Oh, hurrah! I'm so glad!

Don't you dare, not until you've told us all about it.

How can it not be? It's Humph - and even Humph on a bad day is better than
most 'modern' shows on the steam wireless system.

Indeed!

Rest assured, I will do my level best... and I'm going to try to sneak in a
camera to take pictures - I want Samantha as a full size enlargement, and as
many pictures of the Laser controlled display board for the benefit of
Isambard, who might be able at long last to complete the steam controlled
display board using the pictures as reference material...

Obviously, there are no details of who the guest player will be, but given
the venue (the home of the ENO) it surely MUST be the Golden Voice of Jezza
Hardy?
Au Res.,
Paul (who is not the only happy bunny at this news - I made good on a
promise to get a ticket as a birthday pressie for my best friend, who has
been waiting almost as long as me to see the show! The only thing that
would top this would be a ticket to see Kate Bush in concert...)

p.s. BB, sorry that the Malamute didn't win at Crufts, but pleased to see he
got into the final... A first for a Malamute at Crufts I think?

Congratulations! While I have no idea what "I'm Sorry
I Haven't A Clue" is, I hope that it is even better
than you hoped it could be. Enjoy!

I've just been "A-Googling" and it sounds like fun. I
ran across a book while tidying (aka shovelling out
the Augean stables version)the high school library--it
was a compilation of the old "My Word" shows. I
haven't had a chance to read it but it looks like
great fun. We used to listen to imported editions of
"My Word" and "My Music" while driving to the in-laws
years ago. It's things like that (and taping and
constantly watching "The Flying Karamotzov Brothers
version of "A Comedy of Errors") that have created the
strangely warped sense of humor that my son has.

Well, of course! Although I will be a little disapointed, I will still snap
Sven if present!

A-Ha! So no-one has previously introduced you to Mornington Crescent then?
(pauses for someone to introduce an opening...)

I'm not responding to that - anything I try will place me in nip.

Besides, I'm going to the Premier League of MC to see professionals play - I
don't want to sully my mind with amateurish play (even if it's serious
amateur play)

Paul
