Rosie Holt: The Woman’s Hour



My wife and I have gone out a bit this bank holiday weekend. On Friday we went to a comedy show at The Mercury Theatre, on Saturday we went to see Rosie Holt and last night we went to a quiz night at a local pub. 

My son has been out with his friends, and while a trip to the visiting fair was being considered, he and his friends stayed in town instead. 

My daughter has had her first paycheque as she is now working part time where I work. She joked that her views on taxation are now to change and she is going to vote Conservative when she gets the chance. At least I think she was joking. Anyway, she now has enough money to buy her friends decent birthday presents. Not that shopping is on her mind as she has been enjoying the sun by revising in the garden.

I had my annual appraisal and one of my goals was to beat my walking target from last year, which has meant that I have been trying to walk more since then and have been using the weekend to do so. Yesterday my daughter and I walked about with Leia in a new area for the three of us.

Going back to the comedy, Kate McGann started us off on Friday, introducing Jamie D’Souza and then Michael Odewale. My wife had picked seats at the front and while all the front row were asked questions by Kate McGann, it was in a nice way which still got a few laughs. That was a good night and set the bar for Saturday.

On Saturday we went to visit a friend in Ipswich before the comedy show. The town was buzzing as Ipswich had just won promotion back to the old second division. I liked the show more than my wife, but we both did enjoy it. I was surprised to find that I have been blocked on Twitter by Sooz Kempner, for what I do not know. But both were great and the show is worth watching if you are interested in politics and like Rosie Holt.

Now to look up holidays for later this month…
