Luverly tale Rima.... Me is just back from a splendid incident-free trip to Waitrose on the E3. Blessings galore - no moaning passengers and no doggies ( not even sweet little Lucy who belongs to me lovely hippy friend). But I did witness one amusing catastrophe – a massive lorry jammed tight in the alley next to Subway. What on earth was the daft driver thinking of, trying to manoeuvre such a ginormous thing up such a narrow space.... Rima, I'm beginning to suspect you're a very naughty girl with a wicked sense of humour. And I'm much relieved you were sufficiently fast and smart enough as a young trendy to give the horrid Mr Savile the slip. As no doubt you are too Apropos tales from long ago.... I've just racked my feeble brain and remembered what McKellen & Jacobi were doing up in Leicester. A very early and very funny short Stoppard play – The Real Inspector Hound. If you know it, Jacobi played Moon with Ted Hardwick as Birdboot and McKellen directed a rather excellent production.. I directed the same show a dozen years later with Lew Collins, Tim Kightley and Shirley Stelfox... wasn't quite as good but it did have its moments.... I have a shock for you Rima. I hope you're sitting down... Isabella, my darling 93 year old mama (why was once trashed on here by the sweet Pope Doris) …. but that's another story.... naughty Stu! Slappy wrists! Now where was I? Oh yes.... Isabella, my mum btw – her maiden name (wait for it) is Jones. Now I know that like Brown and Smith there's more than one or two Joneses in the world... but you me dear could feasibly be my long lost Auntie Rima.... How's about that then.... |
