Light’s Out – Watch Out

I am taking myself to the Theatre tonight, as a special birthday treat, to the Savoy to see a Comedy `Noises Off’. Last Saturday I went to a Barn Dance in the Church next door to me and on Sunday went to Woolwich Town Hall to a Concert given by the Royal Artillery Orchestra – Very Good. This Sunday I am going to the TV Studios at Teddington to watch the recording of a TV Comedy `Keep It in the Family’. In June I am going to the Cutty Sark for a musical programme to be held in the hold of the Cutty Sark.  Should be good.

Was offered a young kid last week, a Billy goat, was very tempted but thought better of it. Just as well, as yesterday I received a letter from the Housing Trust saying they are setting up a new Tenancy Agreement and that tenants can only have animals with the prior consent of the Trust and also that tenants with gardens must keep them in good order! Don’t like the sound of that.  Must get a light bulb for the bedroom.  Last night I stepped on the dog and knelt on one of the cats (it was on the bed). Neither was pleased with the experience as you can imagine and I made a mental note that next time I have a new animal it will have to be WHITE as the black ones don’t show up when the light bulb goes!
