Saturday 12th February

As I had spent most of the night finishing writing and collating scripts, I did not leap from my bed with the usual brand of enthusiasm that I an not really known for.   However, this mornings session was delightful, and for such a quiet group, we seem to have discovered a huge amount of young talent.  It was a nice way to spend a couple of hours!  The rest of the day was, I am almost ashamed to admit was spent snoozing, dozing and generally doing very little.  Sometimes, you just need to switch off.  I caught up on the world of social media, and watched Spurs win, although that was not exactly enjoyable.  I do wonder how many hours I have spent watching tedium all in the vain hope of success or excitement.  But then I suppose that is the joy of watching Sport is it not?  This week as a Spurs fan was dominated by the news that we will not be moving to the Olympic Stadium in Stratford.  News which, as I have previously blogged, was most welcome by me.  I am not averse to progress, but I think I do have a sense of tradition, none more so about my team.  Having said all of that, I do worry that this will now mean that we end up in Milton Keynes or somewhere equally awful.

Mrs Plug continues with her studies, and course work and lesson planning, and although I know she is struggling with it all, I know it will be worth it.  Eldest is spending the weekend in rehearsal for a production that she is producing at School, and I have two productions in the next two weeks, so again, we look forward to a peaceful couple of weeks!  I enjoy the space that the weekend gives me to mull things over, so when we are busy all weekend I miss it.  I hope to manage my time well to avoid any stressful episodes.

I trawled Spotify in he evening to find something to make me laugh, and found a couple of Stephen Wright albums.  If you can tolerate the incessant whooping and hollering of the audience, his wonderful surreal take on life can bring a smile to the most humourless of people.  I went to bed with a smile on my face

I found a useful website dedicated to comedy on Spotify, the link to the Steven Wright section is here  http://comedify.com/artist/Steven-Wright
