My Day To Escape Reality

Birmingham Town Hall hosts some concerts, recitals and other entertainment during the day, and Libby and I go fairly often as a prelude to some serious shopping. The resident organist, Thomas Trotter, has been performing there for 30 years and is a favourite of mine

 

I was accused of retreating into my second childhood when a few weeks ago I bought us some tickets to see a performance by The Bubble Man. She really didn’t want to go – but came along as an excuse to do some shopping afterwards.

 

Here is a sample of the guy’s show.

Although the show is aimed at kids, his ability to create the most fantastic range of bubbles was awesome and we both loved the show. It was 90 minutes of pure fun and escapism.

 

Now a note for andsome. In the forthcoming attractions for the Birmingham Symphony hall there is a performance that you would possibly enjoy. I'm not tempted to go, but you may be.

No doubt it will rattle the rafters..

I would love to go to that concert, but my left ankle is playing up terribly at present, and causing a lot of pain. It would be too far to walk from New Street station. I have a CD of it and all the rest of his symphonies.

 

I liked the video.
