Posted on 10:27am Thursday 11th March 2010
As rehearsals progress for our April production of The Female of the Species, my eye has turned to productions staged by other groups in the area.

Work on our April production (22nd-24th ), The Female of the Species by Joanna Murray-Smith, continues apace. Rehearsals are now in full swing, lines are being learnt, props are being sourced, and brows are being furrowed! This is a modern play, which was a very successful run in the West End last year, featuring Dame Eileen Atkins in the major role of Margot. Full booking details in a later blog.

Rehearsals have now started for Female of the Species, our Spring production but the group is still stunned by the death of George Pulley. His funeral is not until February 22nd so still a while before the old guy’s finally laid to rest.

Chuffer fades away.......
Posted on 5:35pm Wednesday 3rd February 2010
This week’s blog is written with a heavy heart as my old mate Chuffer died suddenly on Sunday afternoon. Chuffer, better known as George Pulley, was a member of the Kingston Bagpuize Drama Group way back in the 1950’s and rejoined again in the 80’s.

Drama news from all directions this week. General meeting of the group on Tuesday night, Unicorn Theatre last night and the stop press item is that Chuffer’s back from his escapades in Malta. More of that later.

The refuse collection is rubbish.......
Posted on 10:15am Sunday 17th January 2010
What an awful week. It started on Monday-there’s a surprise-when one of my sons was taken into the John Radcliffe with a grumbling appendix which they removed Monday night to find an abscess on it. Nasty.

If Global Warming goes on like this, we'll all freeze to death......

That’s it then only 351 days left until Christmas. Now it’s straight into booking summer holidays and storing Easter Eggs before the tinsel and great Christmas push starts all over again around the end of August. Good grief!

Keep those pages turning in 2010
Posted on 9:58am Tuesday 5th January 2010
Thanks to Cynthia L. Tarvin, Litigation Project Manager in Portland, Oregon, for giving me a little smack on the back of my legs, a gentle reminder that the pages really must start turning again in 2010.
