Pic of the week 17/3/24
On Friday evening Becky and I went to see Jesus Christ Superstar at the Bristol Hippodrome. I enjoyed it, a good bit of musical drama, probably helped that the story was familiar (!) And, on an old man note, it was super convenient, being able to sit, and then still be home before 11pm were all bonuses.
Julian Clary had a guest/cameo role as Herod and was, no surprise, excellent, as were all the cast.
It has been a busy weekend – I use that term a little loosely, Friday evening through to Sunday is the weekend, but they are not days off work for me. On Saturday night I had the Year 10 social (Formal Dinner), which went well, and then this afternoon I have had House Football from 1pm to 4pm. At least the sun came out and I felt some warmth (unlike refereeing yesterday when it was normal Kingweston cold) but I I don’t feel like I’ve had a break this weekend (and my legs ache !) At least it should be downhill from here, a little over a week and a half until the Easter hols – that is an encouraging thought!
In the garden, it is also encouraging to see things poking up and greening up. The Magnolia is pretty over (I always think they are an overrated flash in the pan) but out the front the bushes are going green, the tulips coming up in the front trugg, and in the back today I noticed the first forget-me-not flowers and the hostas are beginning to poke up through the soil in their pots – both signs of better days to come.
