Castle on a cloud

Met Caitlin in town today to see Les Mis (again!).  Lunch first, as last year, in the Istanbul Salonu before crossing the road to Queens theatre.  Great seats - row five of the stalls, and so we dreamed the dream for a couple of hours of pure magic.  Still the best musical ever, well, opera really.  We decided that there needs to be an annual excursion to see Les Mis. 

Shame about the rain, which meant that we couldn't find a pub in Shaftsbury Ave area afterwards that wasn't teeming and steaming, so we went back to Caitlin's very swipe me posh hotel in Green Park, where we sat in the toff's lounge for a beer and nosh.  The hotel over the road had a top hatted doorman. Haven't seen that for a while. Caitlin's little luxury for 36 hours, thank you for letting me share in it :)
