Brother in law Nick (a retired priest) and his wife Sue (retired physiotherapist) came down from Hardwick (near Cambridge) so that we could have lunch together at the Reform Club.
That evening it was fifteen minutes walk to the Sondheim Theatre on Shaftesbury Avenue. I was able to get a last minute ticket for Les Miserables. Having seen the performance many times on PBS including the 25th anniversary at the "O" in London I was keen to see this new production. The tunes were all the same but the staging, scenery and costumes all different. Much enjoyed. Les Mis has now been performed for 40 years in London!
The next morning I had to get up at 6 am. I took an Uber (a Tesla) to Paddington Station and the Heathrow Express. From there it was a ten hour flight to Seattle, then a three hour layover before the flight to Victoria. It was good to be home.
