The box will probably be a bigger hit than the two new toys.

Probably.

DR Singdaw did you have to quarantine after having your covid test prior to surgery?  Keith's cousin will have to quarantine in his bedroom since he lives with his father.  I was surprised about that.

Okay, it’s not as bad as Flashdance the Musical.

Yes, DR Jane - strict instructions to quarantine completely from time of COVID test to surgery.

Started a book called Ritz and Escoffier about opening the first modern hotel in Lodon. Richard D’Oyly Carte is a character. Fun.

Fame is over. Except for the interpolated title song, only one song late in act 2 was any good. It was about a girl falling under the spell of the LA life. If you missed the show, you missed very little.

I watched the first twenty minutes of Partridge with Shirley Jones (I started to type Jackson!), and it’s wonderful.

Yes, too bad about the technical mishegas. Mishegoss? Oh, you know.

But it’s great fun and I’ll watch the rest tomorrow.

I’ve also bookmarked “The Booksellers” to watch tomorrow.

Because damn it to hell, tomorrow is another day.  Right?  Am I right?

Okay, so, BY POPULAR DEMAND...

Some photographic evidence of what the Assassins benefit involved:

Apologies in advance for the ads you'll have to click past.
It's my free Flickr account, and I'm cheap enough to keep it that way.

That’s really cool, Chas.  I wish I could have been in the audience

That is tough when there are other people in the home.

We watched part of that tonight and was just about to mention it.  I too recommend it.
