Went to a street party for my sons 18th. Got home at 4 this morning (by taxi) and had a great night.
Oh, and EBB, not that I've met.
Every dead body on Mt Everest was once a highly motivated person, so maybe just calm the **** down.

See any schoolgirls in 1890s garb wandering around?

I agree, although I haven't been there since I was about 12...
I'd read the book, but hadn't seen the film (which is an absolute masterpiece), which is a shame because it would have been interesting to see all the locations they used in the movie...

Spamalot made me happy today. Had a lovely time there, had free tickets and my daughter and her partner and I made a lovely evening of it.
