Pink

Posted on the April 26th, 2009 under Music, Social/Event by Sam

Went to watch Pink last night in concert at the MEN arena, Manchester. I’ve been a partial fan of her music over the last few years, but was very impressed with the show indeed. She’s an amazing performer – simultaneously singing whilst performing trapeze and circus acts was rather impressive!

Glyderau

Posted on the April 19th, 2009 under Outside, Photos, Walk by Sam

A truly awesome day’s walking on the Glyderau. This comprised of Tryfan (South Ridge) with some additional scrambling thrown in, Bristly Ridge taking a tougher initial climb than Sinister Gulley, fun on the Cantilever stone, Glyder Fach with scramble to the top, Castle of the Winds with scramble, summit of Glyder Fawr, and descent via the Devil’s Kitchen. Weather was superb. Great day.

Last night I watched Show of Hands in Shrewsbury’s new Theatre Severn. Miranda Sykes accompanied them on double bass, and it was a fine evening of outstanding entertainment.

Pictures from a walk along the Nantle Ridge with Matt. A very nice outing indeed. Many thanks to the old couple and their labrador for giving us a lift all the way back to the Cwellyn Arms in Rhyd Ddu.

We Will Rock You

Posted on the April 5th, 2009 under Music, Social/Event, Theatre by Sam

I just went to watch the Queen Musical, “We Will Rock You” in the Manchester Palace. The story was a little bizarre but that didn’t matter, as many classic Queen songs were served up along the way. Very enjoyable, and a must see for all lovers of Queen’s music.
