No, I haven't got around to herding a trip yet - although at present it looks like there may be a trip from my work on Thursday 19th.

Wow congratulations Louise!

[redcountess]

Oh, I didn't know she was a playwright! Well done Louise! And I'm sorry we never contacted her, we lost her email address *sheepish*

Count me in.

Possibly a tactless comment there, sir.

True - fatuous in the extreme, and I apologise for any offence caused. Strictly unintentional. Mea culpa, I hadn't read the sub-title OR the recipient of the proceeds. Seriously, though, "violence and graphic language" does tend to imply something uncompromising, and that does not shy away from confronting issues strongly. Which, certainly with this particular subject matter, is no bad thing.

Re: Kennington. I refuse to apologise for that one, though...

[d-floorlandmine.livejournal.com]

That's OK - I pounced before anyone else got to comment on it, fire extinguisher at the ready. Think of it as a pre-emptive dousing. I'm pretty sure that there will be no shying away taking place!

And as for Kennington, you're right. In fact, a comment so relevant, I have rescued it ...

[Kennington - so the violence and graphic language isn't necessarily in the play...]

Much appreciated. Sometimes the old "Engage brain before putting mouth into gear" goes a bit haywire.

[d-floorlandmine.livejournal.com]

That's OK. Same here!

This is the throttle, this is the clutch. OK. What's that middle pedal for? Oh, it's unimportant.
