DAY 16 Brief encounter with the Bard

Wednesday 24th July

This morning I went shopping with Sian for some essentials to take back to Oz

Stocking up on Marmite (1.3kg) and Twiglets (0.5 kg)

 The we headed off on the Thames Clipper boat service to London Bridge and in to see Henry VI Part II at The Globe theatre

Our seats were in the sun for the first half, but we got a good view of the stage

A wonderfully refreshing Pimms in the courtyard at half time (I'm converted!). It was fun spotting all the famous names in the flagstones

Cheers to more Pimms I say! Owen is looking relieved that his mislaid wallet has been found on the Thames Clipper (phew!)

The audience is now refreshed and ready for part two (the Jack Cade song was excellent)

I had a hat to keep the sun off my lid, a Pimms to keep me refreshed, and a cushion to keep me comfortable, and a memorable time at Shakespeare's Globe Theatre
