I saw a facebook feed from this site for this Play, dithered a little … could I cope with journey to Glasgow etc. etc. etc. None of my friends fancied it, but quess what? I went anyway! What a fantastic time I had. I enjoyed the play, although to start I went in to panic mode … what if I can’t sit for long enough, what if I need to pee, what if I cough, what if I spoil it for everyone else, and choke on my own spit ??? All these ?'s stressing me out … look around Big T, there are many others probs thinking the same, and they are not making a sharp exit. It was funny, a little diverse at times with some fantastic young talent, did anyone else attend?
i would have liked to see it, i saw it on here too, but glasgow was a bit too far.
i love glasgow and the surrounding countryside is beautiful.
my dearest friend died in february and we used to go to the trossachs every autumn. i will go back to remember her.
do you know if the play will be going on to national tour?

I have not read anything about it going national Carole, the other venues mentioned, if Glasgow is too far would also be out of reach for you, Edinburgh and St Andrews I think. Sorry to hear about your friend, it will be good if you do get a visit to the Trossachs, and even manage a wee trip to Glasgow. The play was good in more ways than one, it urged me to do something I have not done for a long time. I went up to Glasgow the day of the play, stayed overnight, then the next day had a trip with my new “Luggie” my work associates had purchased for me, when I left on ill health at the end of June. I was petrified (so too were most of the public) but I managed to shop … not online … and could not believe what I achieved. A nice relaxing meal and another overnight stop, then homeward bound. The train staff were amazing and assisted me at each station, even to the point of changing departure platforms for my connecting train home! I am suffering today, but it was worth every minute and I could not get over the nice helpful people I met, what a bonus. Now I have tested the waters … have Luggie … will travel … just not too frequently lol.
Hi,
Weirdly I bumped into Alison Peebles a few weeks ago. Told her I really enjoyed her various performances over the years and her programme on her own MS journey. She was very lovely and told me about her new show - which i had been desperately trying to remember the name of when i saw your post, thanks! - and reported that it is coming to the Traverse in Edinburgh, if that’s useful for anyone! Sorry I don’t have any dates, but a google search should do it!
