And more…
The BSC companies should be feeling very proud of themselves this week. Three more 4 star reviews appeared today for Whales and Jungle Book – and as the Whales review put it “BSC have done it again”. Six rave reviews in two days for all three shows. Big congrats to all the actors and technical [...]

It’s coming up to the first anniversary of my weekly visits to an elderly woman living in my local area. Elderly is the right word to use here – she is 98! I mention this because these weekly visits have been amongst the most rewarding and important hours of my life. If you are at [...]

Schools
I must admit I despaired when the news came through at 6pm on Monday that Birmingham City Council had decided to close all its schools on Tuesday – the day after the snow fall! Do they never learn? I looked out the window at midnight and there was no snow falling. I looked out the [...]
