Thunderous Applause
Quote of the moment:
"Major-General Peter Gilchrist has been selected to take over the sensitive post of head of the British Defence Staff, Washington, in October." - The Times. That coincides with Britain having the presidency of NATO and should thus be particularly fun.
My granny and my aunt, the General's wife, arrived today to see Music For a Summer Evening. My father is taking my granny home on Monday and staying to DIY for the week. My aunt is going back tomorrow and taking the 18 month old puppy, Nika, with her. She's so skinny she makes Zulu look big:
Nika on the left, Zulu on the right
It was a reasonable evening, although being Kaz m8's escort would have undoubtedly been more fun. I saw Joe O'Connor's twin younger sisters, who look like 13 year old clones of Emma, which was rare!
Sarah taken by suprise, before she could glower
Vicky was in a multiplicity of pieces, but the best was her duet with Jenny Lane, singing German to Jenny's clarinet playing, with Diddly Dave on the piano:
Doesn't Jenny look tall? She was standing on a podium to put her level with Vicky!
There was an extended Thunder drumming session. Highlights included the constant drum switching during the first piece, Will Richards miming to farting sound-effects in the next and the Chrissy Lee/Will R dueting finale, pictured below:
In other news, Big Brother 6 apparently started tonight and The Contender had its first KO. I'll watch BB when they show the fight footage with boxing commentators.
