    Loved your story valli :rotfl:

    But- in the cold light of day

    He screwed the flats together :eek::eek::eek::eek::eek:
    That would only work if you only had one set for the whole performance
    Bet whoever owned the flats was not amused

    (My first 'backstage' experience was as a child - the older ones were well trained and warned about how to behave in the wings and the littlies were supervised at all times)

    Right, I'll get me coat.

    Happy Bank Holiday. I am so glad it is the living room today. I hate doing the kitchen on a Monday :o.
    It was nice and sunny here and hour ago, but now the clouds are rolling in. Boo. At least I got most of the washing and ironing done yesterday.

    I need to try and persuade the twins to do some homework today. They have the dreaded SATs coming up. Some of the schools in our area have announced they are boycotting them, but the twins school and the school I work are are still going ahead with them. DS1 has appaling handwriting and spelling despite his best efforts, so he is stressing about how it will affect his marks.
    I have told him not to worry too much and just do his best.
    Twins, twice the laughs, twice the fun, twice the mess!:j:j
