My First Night In London

Lately, I've been looking into things going on in London during the week I'm there for another once-in-a-lifetime experience. Not like Hamlet isn't enough. But I have only a few nights and I want to make the most of them. Nights specifically. I have plenty of things planned for the daytime, but I don't want to be wandering around alone at night or hanging out in bars, so I need events to attend.

Well, I came across a perfect one today. I love John Finnemore and his radio programs, like Cabin Pressure and the Souvenir Programme. Today, I saw a tweet that he's putting on a new stage show called Souvenir Cabin for two weeks only, and the last night in the run happens to coincide with my first night in London!

I bought a ticket, and I can't wait. Brilliant!

So, that's two nights dealt with, counting the night in Hamlet.

And it's my very first night in the city, too, when I'll be super anxious to get out and yet not at all famliar with the city yet. The plan is, I arrive in London on Sunday morning, amble casually to the hotel, check in and have a shower. Then, I go to Sunday roast at The Stag, and then shopping at Camden Lock Market. Then back to the hotel to drop off my stuff and freshen up, and head off to the Shaw Theatre for this hilarious show.

This trip is getting better and better.
