PEOPLE who know me well will tell you that I have a great love of musical theatre and film.
I mention this because I’m listening (again) to the BBC’s radio tribute to Kander and Ebb’s amazing work (Friday Night is Music Night, Radio 2 and online).
Sometimes I regret my decision not to move to London after I graduated – I would really have enjoyed the whole West End theatre scene.
Our visit last year to see Les Misérables is a case in point – what a joy that was!
Unfortunately, it was a bit of an epic journey for us, what with My Good Lady’s disability and, now, my recent stroke makes it, for the moment, almost impossible for us to get down.
There’s also the small matter of the not inconsiderable costs involved.
Still, I can enjoy CDs of soundtracks and DVDs of movies, as well as the wonderful musical output that the BBC provides almost daily.
So yes, it is one of my small regrets, not being a bit closer to the Big Smoke, it is in reality a very small one.
