Tonight we went and saw Tori Amos live at the Royal Albert Hall. We bought the tickets something like about 3 months ago; and we had the most amazing seats waaay up the front! 

Tori did not disappoint - she's a brilliant performer as ever.

Today Steve headed out into the miserable cold and made his way to Wembley stadium for his chance to see Lockyer play before he retires. The game was England vs Australia, and yes the Aussies won.

We took Dan and Elizabeth out to see the new Tin Tin movie. It was a good bit of fun, and was a good rolling together of a few storylines.

Afterwards Dan was kind enough to drill tiny little holes into Jen's two chandeliers, so she can add crystal to them. Thanks Dan!

A week later on, and there's nothing much to report... except Jen finally got over a nasty headcold, just about when it seems Steve's coming own with one.

Over this weekend Jen worked on "knitting" together chains of crystal and hanging these on the chandeliers. Finally they're complete! (except for bulbs and full wiring that is)

Tonight Kev joined us to see the Sister of Mercy live in concert. Unfortunately the sound quality where we were sat was pretty awful - the whole concert was loud without being crisp, and thank goodness for earplugs. Steve was completely chuffed to get himself a couple of new T-shirts.

The 'Sisters' are renowned for weaving through the mist of their fog machine, so about all you see of them on-stage much of the time are silhouettes.
