Every year for at least the last eight years, Emily, Gill, Lisa and I have gone to watch the Gay Mens Chorus (GMC), for their annual Christmas concert. Infact Emily and I have attended many more.
This year it was Friday 10th December and I booked the tickets for us all as my birthday gift to the girls.
We arranged to meet at Sloane Square Brazzerie at 1800, which meant I had to leave my works Chritsmas meal an hour early. But that wasnt a problem.
Standing, reading my paper one the circle line I could not believe it when who boarded at Monument and stood immediately next to? Emily of course. The funny thing is, I have done that with Emily at least 3 times. Last year, post watching the GMC concert her parents got on the tube and stood immediately next to us! Fate, I guess!
Poor Gil texted us just after we arrived at the bar and said she had turned ill and so was heading home. Was so sad not too see her. But on the plus, lisa, Emily & I had fun! Somehow it only feels Christmas now after this lovely christmas show. It was, of course, fabulous. Heading home quickly afterwards as needed to wake early for my "Spinning" instuctor course! More to follow on just that subject...
