Perhaps should have saved this title for Sunday which will be the 600th anniversary of Agincourt but went to watch the live broadcast from Stratford last night of Henry V. We have now seen the Henry trilogy over the last year and Alex Hassell has played the growing Hal till he eventually becomes the king in all three plays. As the king he portrayed him as a man full of doubt  and was vulnerable taking his men to war very different from the famous Olivier film or even Branagh’s anti-war film. Really enjoyed it and I saw the play in a new light and it is a play I know well. We are off to the Everyman today to see Brave New World.

I went on an enjoyable afternoon walk with Charles Dickens School at Wick Court yesterday. There were very chatty on a whole range of subjects!

I watched the not so mighty Hatters splutter to a home draw on Tuesday night. I hope we find some fluency quickly!
