DA ; Simply Vicky: Don't get pithy with me! Started conversation Oct 30, 2003
Which is the play put on by Jimmy's class at Western Springs College. He spent the long weekend at rehearsals, and they've had performances for the last 3 nights. My brother and I attended the first night, it was brilliant! Jimmy was Theseus, his friend Jin Koo was Puck 
(the play is an 'adaptation' by Jean Betts of a classic Shakespeare comedy.)
Outstanding actors were Genevieve Wilson as Titania, Alisdair Newton-Wade as Oberon, Rebecca Blanchard as Peaseblosson, Hilary Entwhistle as Shulamith, and the rest of the Fallopian Thespians, 'Barbara' being the most outstanding. Hermia and Helena were also excellent. The adaptation was lively, anachronistic, hilariously funny and clunky only in parts.
Tonight, Jimmy attends the sports prizegiving. Chess is a sport, it seems. 
Thanks to my brother for chauffeur and photography services - also takeaways! 
It's been quite a week, and I am so mellow that I forgive the incompetents at work for the mushroom treatment, almost entirely!
I will forgive them even more, if things improve in the information department, and if they provide lunch with training this afternoon...as promised.

'Lunch with training' was a cup of cold coffee and a piece of cake - no, worse, just a chocolate chippie! So I am still annoyed with GSE...
Barbara (Fallopian Thespian) was played by Briar Hardy-Hesson.
I'll talk to Garth about scanning photos...
