What is in Kelvin's Head?

  • Sign seen

    I’m currently on holiday and so spending quite a lot of time going in and out of churches. (What else do you think I would do on holiday?)

    Thoughts?

    The hospice in Ardire has five white candles – none of which have yet been lit – decorated not with greenery but purple and pink cloth.

    Just back from seeing Mr Shaw’s, You Never Can Tell at the King’s Theatre in Edinburgh. A comedy of manners intertwined with a gentle battle of the sexes never does anyone any harm. Ms Diana Quick presented a most elegantly emancipated dragon; Mr Edward Fox an all-seeing Butler. If anything about the play surprises is…

    Having missed going to see anything at all during the Edinburgh Festival and not having been to the theatre for months, I have decided to declare the coming week BirthdayFest in honour of my 39th birthday which falls tomorrow. So, off to Edinburgh for a bit of Shaw. Review later.
