panik | We're back

...

alibongo an' me, back from Stratford where a very good time was had indeed.

Ringside seats, practically sitting on the stage we were!

The Calvin Klein undies were most pleasing, tho a little tempting when wee Davey was sitting with his arse in our faces. Oooh, the heady desire to ping!

David Tennant has a lovely tummy but, omg, what a pale, skinny, hairy wee man! *g*

Patrick Stewart is, of course, a fabulous actor with a fine skill for covering other actor's forgotten lines but disappointingly short for one of our party. *g*

CUNT! ry... How nice to see one icon quoting another. Quite brought a tear to my ear.

Brilliant Hamlet is always brilliant.

Lovely LLL is lovely but the sucky ending hath been sucking, yea an' verily, since 1598.

As I say, we were very close to the stage. if there are any cloneists on my flist, I have a sample of David's DNA on my hat in the form of spit. Speak now before I have it on ebay... (Oh and

alibongo has some of his ~~stage~~ blood too. Other body fluids - you'll have to make your own arrangements.)

We ran into a wonderful guy name of Garrick Huscared on our last day's wanderings. An RSC actor (he was Richard III last year) his artist's colony was not doing well, alas (though his paintings were quite brilliant) and the move into fossils had done little to improve business. He told us some rather delicious actory tales, including some sweet ones about DT. He gave us gifts of very nice fossils with a parting kiss. He was a veritable sweetheart.Go post on his blog, he'll like that.

You're back! ::I have GCSE in stating the obvious::

Missed you babe.

Glad you had such a good time, what with the spitting and snogging and all... and when you say DT is wee, how wee are we talking here? ::holds hands three feet apart::

...is not wee at all, rather tall actually unless you mean...? ::ponders awhile:: I have to say the doublet rather gets in the way of such intimate observations.

I have to say the doublet rather gets in the way of such intimate observations.

Those damn doublets - more trouble than they're worth, that's what I always say.

But the cod piece. Now there's a fashion statement!

::giggles::

I was well-struck in years before I discovered that wearing a cod piece didn't involve fish draped artfully on the head...

::read James Bond too early in life::

Glad you both had a great time, (is slightly jealous, but not so much as to not be glad for you)

It was a welcome stress free break for us both. Sorry it was just a 2-woman gig this time but those tickets were rare as the egg of Mantumbi. You could've knocked me down with an orange peel when I managed to score them.

I glad you got to go, I'm sure if you had managed to get a third ticket you would have thought of me, but I get plenty of good things in my life, so although I would have loved to have gone you two deserved it more.

Fangirls have such lovely times together. I'm glad you had such a great time! Hamlet with DT and PS sounds so wonderful. *sigh*

I ditto

suemc's sentiment. =>}

The Gods of Fandom smiled on us yet again - but then we do make them an awful lot of offerings. *g*

You certainly do that, my dear! And I'm lucky enough to be able to take full advantage of these offerings! *g*

Yay! You're back! I'm so glad you had a good time - how could you not?!
DT and PS were excellent when I was there, DT's tummy was ooh and I was was also positioned for gratuitious shallow, but wasn't close enough for bodily fluids. I didn't meet any fossil guy either while I was there or at least I don't think I did - I spent much of the time coughing and feeling rubbish, but he sounds great!
Have a great weekend!

relaxing after the rigours of the trip. *g* It was utterly brilliant wasn't it? I don;t think I've ever laughed so much in Hamlet before. *g* Ali reckons DT was a far better than Alan Rickman - which is pretty high praise, imo.

I'm so glad you had such a good time. It's definitely the way to see Shakespeare, I've been before, but none were so engrossing, so...all round excellent. The ups, the downs, they involve the audience and it's not some old dusty historical stuff anymore.
And yes, high praise indeed!

Welcome home!

Oh, how cool - DNA! I'm so jealous *G* Glad you had a great time!

DNA - oh yeah. There was quite a lot of it about. He's a bit of a spitter, is our Davey. *g*

It was magnificent. We had a stunningly good time both in the theatre and just mooching round Stratford. Very relaxing. Just what we both needed.

Amen to all, sister. Especially the tummy and the beauteousness of Mr. Stewart.

I couldst not concur more heartily my love.

Looking at your pix, you were clearly staying on the same street as we were - there were an awful lot of B&Bs all in a row. We were at the Albermarle then the Ashcroft(?) - Ashgrove... something like that - for the last day as they could only do us 2 days at the delightful Albermarle.

We were at the Ambleside and then the Ashgrove babe *G*

*sigh* my squee is continuing with the repeat of the Loves Labours Won ep on BBC3 tonight - made more brilliant by recent experiences.

My Tennant blood is safely squished behind glass looking like a splodge of strawberry jam, but I know better, it has been on that swanlike neck it has ;o)

The goddess of fandom is indeed good to Gillykin and I - but as you say, we do send an awful lot of offerings up in her name *G*
