Wednesday's theatre experience
So last night, Susan, David (Susan's brother), and I went to the theatre to see a show that celebrated its 20,000th performance in December 2000, can anyone guess what play that is??Well we saw the 22,237 showing of Agatha Christie's mystery MouseTrap at St Martins Theatre on West Street. To give you an idea of just how long ago it started, when this famous whodunnit opened in the West End, Winston Churchill was still at number 10 Downing Street and Stalin ruled Russia! (Yes, that means 54 years ago)

David & I had (vegetarian version of) Brazilian Feijoada --- black beans, soya meat, rice, finger tapioca, fried banana, farofa and pumpkin, while Susan had one of the Vegetarian Specials on the menu. The food was fantastic!
We didn't have dessert at NYSB because we knew there would be ice cream sold during intermission at the play!
After the show, we all walked up to Goodge Street, I got the tube home from there & they walked home.
Tonight's show is HayFever (just started this past Monday)
