We're off to see the wizard!
Well, off to the Panto.
The tickets that Limey conscientiously sent to the Alamo in case she couldn't make it were lost in the post. This actually happens less than people believe and is usually just the last excuse of thieves and scoundrels.
Limey is neither, so it was just sod's law.
Of all the worries that worried me, the tickets were not that high on the list.
Not once I had my girls with me.
I can be quite bullish when needs arise, but put me with Limey & Dani and I am immediately in passive mode. It's not a conscious decision, it's almost pheromonal.
Limes brought the whole ticket-buying-papertrail (well, it did fit into an envelope) and that was that.
Limey is a force of nature: educated, a financial expert, English with a history of living in Scotland... basically you cannot face this woman down.
Not even a hardened Weedgie SECC employee could stand agin her.
That said, it seems he was a decent chap and Limey only had to smile at him anyway.
Oh I forgot to mention, she keeps her claws sheathed; Limes also has a degree in Charm.
1) The Armadillo (where we were headed) and the new Hydro
2) La Rotunda Restaurant. We didn't go there, but the building appealed to me. It was the entry and exit point for pedestrian/ horse and carriage tunnels from the end of the 19th century, originally housing hydraulic lifts. There's an identical building on the other side of the river, which is for sale. Let's buy it!
