Alpacas and The Wall

The day started with a walk to the top of Monash hill with Millie and MLR. MLR thought it was too long a walk and sat down on the ground a couple of times. After cleaning the kitchen and the lounge room up a little I took MLR and went off to EPIC to see my friends Alpaca's. She runs Indigo Alpacas near Goulburn. My friend CJK and her kids J & J joined us at EPIC. CJK took some photo's and hopefully I will add them shortly. Afterwards CJK, I and the kids had coffee at Macca's.


In the evening JR, MR and CR and I went out to see Pink Floyd's "The Wall" at the Street Theatre in Town, an amateur production. We had tickets to dinner and the show. Dinner was in the Teatro Vivaldi, we had two courses before the show and then returned for desert in the intermission. The show was fantastic and we really enjoyed the acting, the singing and the light show which was spectacular. There were two problems with the seating, one was that it was unallocated and therefore first in best dressed, which is difficult when you are trying to get four seats together! This was further compounded by the fact that they did not open the doors until almost 8pm (rather than 7.45pm), which made for great stampede acts from people who had been waiting in line for 15-20 minutes. The other issue was that MV's seat in the theatre after dinner sank to the floor as she sat down. MV and JR had to move two rows back and sit where the roadies had sat before!!! Obviously the dinner portions were too generous.
