The Gobstopper

It's drama all round today. L has gone with Alex to see Gaby's final ever show in sixth form. It has adult content, so we were not allowed to take Emma, so I am at home with her and we have just watched Indiana Jones - again she says!

This afternoon it was Emma's ballet matinee performance, in which she plays a gobstopper in a slightly modified Nutcracker meets Swan Lake. Well what else could you do on a rainy wet afternoon? The ballet section of the show was fantastic - even though Emma's piece was only a small percentage of it:) I did steal a little photograph with my camera of the entire cast on stage at the end, but the burnt out highlights due to the stage lights didn't do it justice, so you have here Emma wearing the helmet portion of her stage outfit. And it's not going in the cupboard either - it will make a jolly good bike helmet!
