    How could I not know that is the Old Spice theme!!

    I have played a little from you tube this afternoon so I feel a little more knowledgeable. Of course it would have helped if I had managed to stay awake.

    So I am treating this like a date with myself. Nice shower and hair wash. Had a nice pizza and now getting a bit panicky but OK.

    Send me positive vibes!

    I did it!! I did it!! I did it!!

    It was brilliant and I loved it. Everyone about was very friendly as it was made up of local singers as well as a school choir. All in all about 150 singers and a full orchestra..

    Now I did do something daft. I booked the ticket on line and didn't quite check what I bought. The ticket I bought was for Saturday 3rd March. How embarrassing. Luckily there was a ticket available so I stayed.

    Back home now and exhausted. However I did it. And you know what, it really wasn't so bad

    Well done Pauline!

    So happy for you :j :beer:
    I Believe.....
    That it isn't always enough, to be forgiven by others.
    Sometimes, you have to learn to forgive yourself.

    Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery
    Today is a gift. That's why it is called the present.

    happiness isn't achieved by getting extra things,
    but by getting rid of the things that make you unhappy

    That sounds like a super date - and of course you have a ticket in hand now so you can go again! You are not the only one who books wrong dates - someone else I know has had it happen, it's too easy to do.

    So pleased you had a good evening. :)
