Nice one Buddy - well done! Appreciate the votes Fiery & Culmer.
Thanks for the challenge Jono - my theory is every day is April Fools Day - when I peruse my morning paper I read of all the crazy things happening in the World and wonder if they can be true!

Congrats buddy and thanks jono. Thanks for the various votes.

King Lear was the last play I ever went to, at the Old Vic. There were two rugby internationals in London that day (Wales were temporarily using Wembley), but had to endure such tedium, I walked out at the interval. I think there's a lot of Emperor's new clothes about Shakespeare.
