Review of New London Theatre
21 Apr 08, 07:42
Darius...in a musical...and quite good - who'd have thought it ? 
I really had to overcome my complete aversion to Darius when I went to see the stage version of Gone with the Wind...surely no one's forgiven him for "Hit me baby one more time" yet ? I expected to hate him in it but actually he did quite a good Rhett Butler and there wasn't a hint of scottish in his Southern drawl. The production and stage was amazing - the way the cast used the space was incredible. And apart from some (unintentionally) funny moments - like when Scarlett helps deliver a baby on stage - the whole play did justice to the book. Having said that, just try not to laugh when Darius delivers the line "frankly my dear I just don't give a damn"....

Review of Riverside Inn

Great carvery, great garden and Pimms on tap
The Riverside Inn's my local and it's great at any time of year. Cosy and friendly during the winter and in the Summer its beer garden on the river comes into its own. There's a nice mix of young, old and families and the staff are always really friendly - especially the owners. I can't speak highly enough of the Sunday carvery - whenever I have friends to stay for the weekend I take them there because it saves me the bother of cooking a roast myself that could never live up to what you get at the pub anyway. And as if that's not enough...they also have Pimms on tap - pure class.
