so long, farewell...

OK... so there's a person in my life- we'll call him D- who, although he should have been, hasn't really made the effort in my life that he should have. Tonight D made the ultimate berayal. Over the years I've forgiven and forgotten a hell of a lot- even tried to make amends and fix things. Everything that's gone wrong between the 2 of us Ive blamed myself for.... But now I'M THROUGH! I give up trying, I give up loving him and finally I give up anything to do with him. You had your chance... now I'm done. Goodbye D... forever.

As if We Never Said Goodbye...

Well, the end of another wonderful trip to London! YOu know, I'm actually starting to adjust to not living in London, although I miss actually being there all the time, goign up and down every few weeks is soooooo much fun. This trip, I stayed at Hayley's house and have honestly never drunk so much alcohol in my life! Yes, wine and cocktails were consumed in ridiculously large amounts and yes, when I returned home were also part of a quick jaunt to A&E! As well as lounging in a drunken stupour, there was plenty of theatre in the form or regular trips down on Sunset Boulevard! The first of which stared none other than the ever fabulous Jessica Martin! Now, everyone knows I LOVE Jess with a passion, and am always impressed with her Norma, but... WOW! It's only been about a month since the last time I saw her, but the changes she has implicated in the short amount of performaces she's had are amazing. Her Norma is almost like a child. At times selfish, bratty and when nessasary, increadably needy. During the final scene, I just wanted to grab her and wrap her in cotton wool! The other couple of performances I went to Kathryn had returned, but for me, she fails to really make the emotional connection Jess achieves through her acting, I love Kathryn's voice especially in her bigger numbers, but find that during some of the more low key numbers- such as Surrender- don't have that punch that makes you feel sorry for the character and that sympathy is something I think you need to understand the character.

Ok, so enough about Sunset (again!) overall I had a wonderful time, check out my facebook and Hayleys blog for the video evidence of our weekend of sunset and debauchery- although, with very little debauchery... just a lot of giggles! Oh, and a lot of random celebrity spots, including: Jessie Buckley, Lee Mead (!!!!!!), Bill Bailey and Linda Belingham (legend!)
