Manic Weekend

Boy, was it manic!

Friday Adam and I treated ourselves to a concert at Birmingham Symphony hall for a performance of Handel's Messiah which has to be one of the most inspiring and beautiful pieces of music ever written. As it was a classical concert, no-one was allowed to leave mid performance and true to form, I needed the loo about 20 mins in! I whispered my panic to Ad and got prodded in the back by a woman telling me to be quiet! How embarrassing!! The concert itself was fabulous, did my best not to sing along!

Saturday Was my monthly crop where a fab time was had as usual. I was one of Dawn's (see photo) minions helping to serve a full Christmas dinner which was yummy but I'm not looking forward to getting weighed tomorrow! I even managed to complete a layout but it's too dark to photo it properly tonight. Will do so tomorrow, I promise!

Sunday We were back at Symphony hall! This time as our youngest was taking part in a huge Christmas concert put on by children from schools in our area. I must say when they all sing together, it's quite moving, they sound wonderful. There was also the youth theatre, orchestra, electric violin, jazz, ballet and modern dance groups taking part.
