The weather forecast was right,and we woke up to snow again this morning..


and would you believe we are going to a Pantomime this evening,at the local village hall…so very fitting,…
It is no ordinary one,as the cast is all male,and they have performed these for many years,in aid of our local Mountain Rescue Team,..who call themselves “The Avalanche Dodgers.”.We went for the first time last year ,and it was hilarious.It was called “The Wizard of Ossett”,this being the name of a place near Wakefield.I don’t know what this years production is called,but I’m sure it will be just as funny…I hope we don’t need rescuing ,at the end of it Lol.

High winds and rain here overnight but wind has died down now and rain has stopped so we're left with just the same miserable damp we've had since the start of this month!

19 Feb, 2011

 

Your panto is sure to be filled with laughter and fun...a good pick-you-up in your snowy winter/spring wonderland!

You'll have to blog and tell us all about the performance.

The snow stopped by lunchtime,but we were left with very thick fog,which was not good to drive in,but at least it wasn't freezing..All snow gone..yay!but still dull and more misty,than foggy,today...pretty darned miserable..see how polite I am? ..no swearing..Lol.
Pleased to say the 25th year of the all male Panto was brilliant!..It was based on the Pirates of the Caribbean...very loosely..!! Main characters were Queen Elizabeth the 1st,and a Johnny Deppe look alike ,playing Sir Walter Raleigh !..discovery of potato's and tobacco..etc,and thrown in for good measure,a look a like gyrating Elvis..don't ask !.and some very brave lads showing a bit of...well, think male thongs ,and a full moon view..naughty,but not in an offensive way..! A full house,and booked solid for the week ahead.My friend's husband,designed all the scenery backdrops,and it was nice he got a special mention at the end .Some of the performers have taken part since they started all those years ago,and a lot of them are quite elderly,so they work so hard to entertain us all,and raise much needed funding for The mountain Rescue team..I took my camera,but no one was taking pics,as it would probably would distract the cast,so ,sorry I am unable to show you all..

20 Feb, 2011

20 Feb, 2011

21 Feb, 2011
