A night at the Opera

A first for me. A night at the Royal Opera House in Muscat. And what a treat it was.

While I put on my suit because of the dire warnings on the ticket, quite a few folk went to a lot more trouble. Lots of party frocks got an airing.

It is a magnificent building; the finishing is just exquisite. And the wee TV screen in the seat in front gave me all the subtitles.

On stage, it was quite a spectacle. And all that emotion in song and music.

And when I got out, the Ferraris and the like were lined up waiting. Couldn't find mine.

And what was the opera on this Scottish Indeoendence Referendum day? Macbeth of course.
