We set off fairly early this morning to get to Olympia for Perform It and Move it. They are a kind of networking event for the dance and theatre industry, but I have to say largely focussed on the dance side of things. Eldest was able to speak to a few drama schools and get the odd prospectus or two, and we were able to see some amazing dancing, and see Arlene Phillips close up, which was not really the highlight of my day. It was pretty good I suppose, but I cannot help but feel that it was really an event designed to grab every penny it could from gullible young people who seem to think that getting into the industry is easy. Here are a couple of photos from the day;


After a pub lunch we came home to relax a bit. It would have been my Grandmother's birthday today, and I always like to spend a few minutes thinking of her. It used to make me feel very sad, but now I seem to be able to reflect in a non melancholy way...perhaps I am just getting cold and heartless in my old age?
