Points.

We have just returned home from Birmingham, where we went to the ballet at the Hippodrome - "Passion & Ecstacy", two modern ballets.
The first (20 min) was set toAllegri diversi by Rossini. It was very gentle & pretty.
The second was set to Carmina burana by Carl Orff, a morality tale following the fortunes of three Seminarians who reject their faith.
It was amazing!!!
I only wish that I hadn't nodded off briefly & missed the section about eating, with dancers in fat suits, & that T & Jessie could have seen it.
We had a Cantonese meal afterwards, then came home.
An excellent evening.

This morning I shopped in Kenilworth market - wonderful fruit & veg for a knockdown price.
To complete the day, we were home in time to see the end of "QT".
Bed time.

Sometimes the excitement is just too much - I blame it on the medication!
