On Tuesday I went to Bristol to see Avenue Q with Matt - needless to say we had a great time and really enjoyed the show and being the two old hams that we are, we wished we were up on stage doing the show ourselves - but this blog isn't about the show oh no thsi is about what happened after the show when we realised we had no cash on us and we had to pay for the parking and the toll on the Severn Bridge - great - we really didn't think this out now did we - fortunately we had a little change on us and a tenner in the bank.
Now we had to find a bank.
Now you would think that finding a cash point in Bristol City Centre would be easy - not so - the first cash point only had £20, no good so off we went to find another one - fortunately the next one we found (which by the way was a good 5 minute walk away) had smaller notes in fact they gave us 2 £5 notes which is unusual.
Anyway off we toddled back to the car park on Trenchard Street - me dreading how much this was going to cost - in the end it was £2.50 phew that's a relief. The the bridge £5.70 - with the little bit of change we pooled together we had enought money to go to the 24 Tesco in Risca to buy some food - Pizza in fact 2 for £3.50 - we always get those, then it was back to the flat for food and another musical - yes we love our musicals, this time it was the DVD of Barnum starring the wonderful Michael Crawford - Matt doing his usual singing along with all the songs - I swear that man has a photographic memory!
And by the time that finished it was gone 2! So another late night then at least the next day was my day off so I didn't have to get up in the morning.
Great night even if Matt did take Barnum home with him the next day - so who knows when I will get that back!
At least I still have my Les Miserables and Into the Woods DVDs, still he does have my Chorus Line and Cats ones - hmm I wonder what I can get next on DVD that he will run off with - althought to be fair I do have quiet a lot of his stuff at mine especially his books.
