Best headline, but this is the best story, made the more so by the amazing Journalistic integrity displayed by the Adver Photographer who stood by the  mantra of "report the story, do not become the story", by leaving the mattress in situ

First Christmas lights on display in my neighbourhood Eek

As this is the USA, they go over the top on lights.  However, when the Halloween ones come down (the day after, they are very prompt), then people have a staging display where they pop Autumn themed stuff on the front of the houses, including inflatable Turkeys for Thanksgiving.  It means the Christmas stuff doesn't appear until the last week of November.

Batch's musicals review

Six. good cast good mix of two level humour. But ir is essentially six women singing about the wives of Henry 8th and a little short at 1hr 20. Quite enjoyed it though

BTTF. OMFG. If you like the movie go and see it if you can. I was a little worried I'd watch Marty and Doc and always be thinking of Fox and Lloyd. But nope, the casting was superb. The assets were superb. Songs Superb. I am not going into more depth but 10/10 for me.

Thanks for that, Six does not appeal to me at all but BTTF does, we are booking up in the next few weeks for a Thursday matinee performance.

I can concur with Batch's BTTF review.  It's not just the show, but the whole experience is very well done and makes for a great trip out, very similar to Only Fools and Horses but obciously completely different shows.
