    If it's closing in the West End it might go on tour soon?? That quite often happens, so I'll keep my fingers crossed. I know it's a bit sad, but I really wanted to go and see Little Shop of Horrors, but that pesky money thing always comes up, doesn't it?! :rolleyes:

    it does damb you money lol....i wouldnt of minded little shop of horrors either ...i was speaking to some girls that work with fiddler on the roof on sat night (that's how i found out it's shutting) i asked them if it was touring (thinking i'd maybe get to see it in edinburgh or glasgow) but they were quite sure it wasnt it was just shutting not selling enough ..like the blue man group i thought that was still going (another show i wanted to see) but it appears it isnt ...ive spent the last wee while looking up cheap places and it works out i can get cheap tickets etc hotel (not very cheap but not bad) and cheap flights and slava is playing there for 3 days (i think it's 3 but maybe 4) before slava tours and this year slava isnt coming to glasgow ...oh how tempted am i.... gonna need to make sure i dont get too drunk soon or i'll wake up the next day booked ...like i did with def lepard and a-ha both very good live but i would never have bought them unless i was drunk (ooops) and it deff doesnt help having the net at the touch of a button lol ...but i will not succumb even though i would love to see those two shows i will resist

    Oh that's a shame - know what you mean about booking things whilst drunk - I have been to see Bon Jovi twice for that exact reason...lol!!

    hey handsome, cyprus as ok but very very expensive wont be going back ...spent alot of it refereeing hubby and son as well not very relaxing...london was amazing and would've been even more perfect with a wee side trip to see you but after you put the police stalking order on me i thought it better not to risk it lol ....

    hypno i managed not to buy tickets for stomp and slava yet and have hidden all the pernod just incase but i did even get hubby going ohhhh i wouldnt mind seeing that and if you can get flights for 1p then maybe ...so off to ryan air i went and got flights for 1p ok taxes and everything else to be added (but didnt tell him that) and showed him the 1p screen he said well go for it but that wee cricket on my shoulder kicked in and reminded me what we have done in the last wee while and how we are getting more into debt so we have to get that sorted and stomp will just have to stay on my forever lost to me wish list


    http://www.avenueqthemusical.co.uk/the-show/video-clips.php this is a video clip of the show we saw on saturday night it was funny and very well done let me know what you think...and ofcourse we saw the phantom on the friday night that was the reason for us going down hubby has always wanted to see it so has fil so they payed for us all for nearly the whole trip (we didnt spend much at all) for hubby's 40th b/day which is in november ....i'll need to think of something for him now

    Debt-free and Proud!
    The problem I find with shows, concerts etc is that panic of when you'd get the chance to see them again - well done on not booking anything else just yet - I'm one of these people that could go on ticketmaster & spend a grand in minutes!
