Phantasmagorical! I went out with the parentals, Ali, and Anthony last night to see Chitty Chitty Bang Bang at the theatre and it was so very awesome. A beautiful fun family musical. Gorgeous glorious fun, all the singing and dancing was great, and I kinda fell in love with the Caraticaus Potts and Truly Scrumptious sweet love story. No fanfiction to be found though. Gah. Always the way. I want to come back later this year for Round the Horne and White Christmas. Yep, planning early pays off :)

It is tipping down with rain here, really vicious and soggy. Of course, tonight is when Chris is planning a BBQ. But apparently there are other plans afoot. Good news. It'll be lovely to see everyone before heading back to Soton tomorrow. And yay, Jeremy has emailed me with the news that my laptop is fixed. The part that got damaged is much weaker than before so it'll have to be replaced at some later point I expect. I'm just grateful he's been able to work some of his technological magic on it.
