We're back

...[livejournal.com profile] 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 [livejournal.com profile] 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.

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*
