Another fun filled, action packed week...

Can-Can or in my case - can't can't.
In lieu of this years pantomime NIVADS (Nidri Very Amateur Dramatics Society) had a change and decided to put on an "Old Time Music Hall" concert.  Reminiscent of TV's the good old days from the sixties and early seventies.  Complete with it's very own version of Leonard Sachs playing the master of ceremonies and coming out with some outrageous and typically hammed up words to suit.

King Prawn chow mein please! 
On the night we attended, Friday, the audience also played their parts with the oohs and aahs during the introductions and also joining in to the melodious refrains of our very talented actors.

Barber shop singing as you've never seen before.
 What a excellent nights entertainment and all recruited from a very small "gene pool" of talent on the island.  The costumes, the music the production, the food, the company and the laughs all priceless!
Random animal torture into the bargain.
What can you, died and gone to heaven well maybe not.

Washing out by eight thirty.
 We would like to extend out thanks to all the people who made it possible and also to Vlicho Yacht club for staging the event and also furnishing us with sustenance throughout the evening, well done one and all.

Can't leave without a special mention to our barber shop quartet of Mike, Vince, Keith and Brian.  They were superb even if they looked more like butchers than barbers.  Laugh - I nearly got me fags out.
Steve and Pete doing a "gig" in Remezzo's.

On Sunday we had another might of being entertained.  This time by Steve and Pete on Guitars, and a short guest slot with the excellent Davey Rogerson assisted by Keith Oliver all with some additional vocal work again by the small but not unappreciative gang of (mainly) live aboards in the marina.  Thanks you guys for dragging us away from the telly for the evening.

Whilst on the thank you tack, must mention Linda and Ray who accommodated us yesterday and cooked a lovely curry (I know I should have been an Indian) for us.  Thoroughly enjoyed the day and thanks for the marmalade also.
