Brilliant play and well worth seeing, if you can. In other news - I know it won’t solve the larger and horrific problem of rough-sleeping in London - but the guy asleep on the pavement in front of Coutts should be given an arts council grant. - ThreadSky

It's not Nigel Farage, is it?

Boris has fallen?

Out seeing some play called The Mousetrap tonight. The usher was very condescending when I asked if it was the original cast.

Ha, very good. Lovely theatre as well, really adds a period atmosphere. If you go and see it in about 2 weeks then it will be the 30,000th performance.

The most shocking twist is that, in the bar beforehand, we talked to strangers. That isn’t meant to happen in London!
They were American though (from Oregon) so we probably didn’t break any laws.

What a horrific slight against those of us who live here in that London!
I regularly chat with strangers (until they quietly sidle off)

Well, my last day in London. I will be appearing in an afternoon matinee gawping at Buckingham Palace and then a final performance at Heathrow Terminal 5. Last minute tickets available for what critics have called, “Just some hick wandering around”.

In that St James Park. People in Newcastle are always going on about it, but it’s just a bunch of trees and grass.

You haven't found the secret football pitch yet? Most people don't, tbf.

Final show of our visit… Disney’s Mulan.

…where nothing much happens.

I really thought you would have taken in Dr Strangelove

It wasn’t on while we were here. I’m off to see the filmed play in the cinema with Eddie at the end of next month. Mrs R owes him a beer, for saving her from it.

*Oregano. I know they pronounce it funny, but let's maintain standards.

There is still one original voice that is heard in the play

When it started, I said, fairly loudly, if they catch it, we've got no chance of seeing the mouse from here.
Not a single titter. Just rude.
