Dinner out

The Victoria Palace Theatre

See gold ballerina on top

Billy Elliot

Hi there
Well last night we went to West  End and enjoyed a lovely Italian meal at Izzy with our wonderful friend sally who had just made the journey from France to London via the bullet train.
Sally is due to fly back to France today to begin her journey through Spain. A 900 km walk on her own.
Billy Elliot was fantastic, the cast were great and the play was amazing, the commitment to the roles was 100% and each person especially "billy" was incredible.
The theatre itself was beautiful and  you have to see it to get what i mean. It was callled "The Victoria Palace Theatre" and it has a gold ballerina on the top of it. I think it is one of the oldest theatres there.  It is  beautifully maintained with lots of plush red velvet carpet and seats  and gold everywhere with various sized chandeliers and classic design from an era long ago
Lots of people out on this late night very glad to finally hit the sack after a hectic  train trip back home on the underground
After a good nights sleep we feel much restored and are ready to head off to York by train. We are looking forward to leaving the hectic pace of London behind and seeing some of that lovely English countryside and then on to Ireland where I believe it will be a lot cooler
Bye for now
Love to Australia happy voting Mxxx
