Easter Treat.

So a eggcellent time was had over easter there was a lot to do and lots of eggs to find - photos coming soon but before that a little something else.

By me, for you.



Are they not sweet? I am totally going through a bit of an owl thing at the moment - so is everywhere else it seems, every single craft shop is bursting with them and then of course there is this eggsample - Hungover Owls. Giggle.

Theatre Reviews from London Town

Ah yes, Melbourne, we have excellent theatre over here too!! True story - some of it is even co-written by Australians!

I've finally gotten around to reviewing some stuff.

Matilda The Musical at the Cambridge Theatre was fabulous. I had some conflicted opinions on just how fabulous thanks to my adoration of the book but it did win me over. This one is going completely gangbusters and taking slews of nominations and probably will tour over to you, lovely Melbourne. If so - you must see it!!

Review of The Recruiting Officer at the Donmar - we queued up from before 8am to get day tickets and it was totally worth it! It's closed now but hopefully it will tour and there will be a chance to see it in the future.

In other news Spring is springing and I am gearing up to sort photos so there should be plenty more activity on this blog (than there has been for ages).

Missing you.

And a Happy New Year!

White Wine in The Sun (Tim Minchin)

So I cried today but in the best way you can:



It's so very beautiful and there is a truth to it that kicks you right in the chest.

Triangles.

St. Pancras Station.

So in St. Pancras there is a statue which is rather massive and twee of couple saying goodbye (nay, farewell!) he looks has a displaced backpack and she has not very nice shoes - anyways much, much more interesting is the base on which they are standing - it is this gorgeously itricate bronze of all sorts of people that have used and still continue to use the railway. Michelle and I both liked the bored looking men.

You must excuse the flash/non-flash thing as we were in a hurry to catch head down to the river. Anyways it is called 'The Meeting Place and is by Paul Day. [The view of the couple here is totally unrealistic as you can't GET that high to see that unless you are on a cherry picker!]

There are also some Olympic rings, in case you forget.

And for some reason we didn't see the cute little Betjeman statue so next time.

But I Couldn't find a Banksy Not Anywhere There.

So there is this little spot near Waterloo Station that is an ever-chaning canvas for the city. I love the idea of a gallery space such as this as it is contastantly shifting and reinventing itself and at the same time there is this gorgeous layering of what has been before.

I think it will also be interesting to visit it when it is shivery and wet and the colours are shiny with the cold. There is a warmth to the concrete when there is the sun glancing into the tunnel from each end.
