As usual the proper write-up's on my blog, but here's the edited highlights -
We had front row seats (again) but were sitting the opposite side to all the other shows. Consequently we were able to see into the wings before the show started and noticed a cheeky little face peeping round the curtains - Tim! The theatre was sold out and it was so good to see the show with a packed audience who were really responsive and joined in with all our clapping and cheering. Tim and Graeme seemed on top form and really seemed to be enjoying the show more than usual. There were some gloriously funny moments, including Tim getting the giggles while he was trying to tell his story about Germaine Greer (and the more he laughed, the more we did, which I think made it worse), Graeme appearing from behind the curtain where Bill's paper supposedly fell out of the screen, the bulb falling off the horn on the radio mic stand and Tim commenting about being upstaged.
After the show it was round to the stage door and as usual we waited for the crowds to go first. While we were waiting we realised that we were standing next to Lisa, so it was great to put a face to a name. While we were chatting we suddenly noticed Tim running past us! I think one of the kids who was asking for autographs had got a bit overawed and so had run away and Tim was running after him!! (Graeme just sauntered over in a very casual way!)
Then it was our turn. Graeme said something about me being a 'lady in red' (I was wearing a red dress) and looked at my dress and went "oh, yes" as I hadn't thought about that! I asked for a photo with him (which I look really strange on, but Graeme looks fab. I must learn not to pull funny faces when I'm having my picture taken) and a hug - going for the works!!
I then asked Tim to sign my programme. He'd put his pen away, and so I borrowed Clair's, and Tim asked me if I could help him by taking the end off for him. I did, while Tim was making some comment about how he could have said pull the end off (he's so naughty! ). Then I had a photo where I was still giggling too much, but it's a good picture. I also asked for a hug, which was lovely, although afterwards Tim said something about goose (it was written on the pub behind me)!!
It's so sad that it was the last show (for me) :'(
Mood - Happy (but a little bit sad too)
Music - Wild Thing! (grrr)
