Ben, Ben, Ben... such cynicism in one so young! Or is it just that I see cynicism where.. no, it's not me, it's you! Bloodlines, family name, manipulation, it just wouldn't happen nowadays, would it??? I have to tell you, things look bleak for our hero. When you head to the UK (it must be very soon, isn't it?) will you be able to make time for Stratford on Avon and/or the Shakespeare Globe theatre? We saw both, but because it was mid-winter there were no plays on at the Globe - I believe that they stage Shakespeare's plays through the warmer months. With your new-found love of the bard, it would make for a wonderful day. If you don't have time for a performance, they do have tours. It's on the south bank of the Thames, just a short walk across the Millenium Bridge from St Paul's Cathedral, and then a pleasant walk along the river bank back to Waterloo Station which is just next to Waterloo Bridge (no, we didn't see Terry or Julie!)

I will try to do something Shakespeare-related while I am in London next month. I'll only be there a few days, so my options might be limited.
Thanks as always for reading and commenting, Jean. It means a lot.
