Disco inferno - from the stage show of Saturday Night Fever

What a birthday! Worked like a navvy and then got a cake from the DC girls (which we'll have for morning tea today). Rewarded myself with a much needed massage to ease my tense muscles and then got whisked off to see "Saturday Night Fever" live on stage at The Esplanade. I LOVE MUSICALS! If I could have my time again I would have kept dancing (tried to get good at it) and learned to sing. All my years in crappy scholl and amateur theatre company productions from "Godspell" to "Oklahoma" came flooding back!

Simon got great seats. One row from the front, right in the middle, we were almost part of the show.

The cast (all Australians) were brilliant. The dancing was incredible. so energetic and the singing just as professional. The fact that we did have crotch eye view seats was alos a little funny!

At the end they performed 3 encores and got the crowd up dancing and singing along. Sitting in the front row is always a little confronting in these situations. Do we or don't we. It was my birthday so I decided I should "dance if I want to". It was great! After 2 hours of toe tapping and mouthing the words it was great to have a go! I think the cast appreciated seeing a lady with a bump getting in to it in the front row! (we got a few winks and smiles) Boy were our hands sore afterwards!

Thanks Simon for the great evening.

I love you!

Last chance to give us your suggestions on baby names. Or to hazard a guess at the sex of our child to be.
Have your say in my comments.
