Yes, the title says it all, doesn't it?
After 9 days (!) I am eventually on the mend. Still got a cough and voice is a bit croaky but that's nothing. I don't call that illness, just a nuisance.
My apologies to everyone who has sent me messages and comments, I haven't replied because I simply didn't feel well enough to think about composing replies, but I will catch up on all communications soon, I promise.
I'm glad it's over, I've heard some people with the same symptoms have been ill for weeks, so I should be glad that I have a pretty good immune system.
I suppose now would be a good time to update you on the final weekend of shows too, eh? Well, as I said in my last post the Friday was just awful, but Saturday's performances went really well, in fact I think the final Saturday evening show was the best we did of all of them. The only down side was that we had to dismantle and store away all the flats for the sets/scenery and store away all the props and costumes, which took a while, and when you get through 2 performances in one day while feeling like shite and having to take paracetamol, throat lozenges and applying cream to your ulcerated lips, all you can picture in your mind is a warm bath and snuggling up with pillows and duvets and sleeping for a week, so it kind of put a damper on the whole experience for me. Still, can't be helped, I suppose. I mean, it's not like I could have avoided catching a dose of the lurgy.
So, it looks like I might be well enough to go out tomorrow night, which will be nice. DJ Burt Ramrod will be rocking us all out at Dunelm House in Durham, so if you're in the area and like a good mixture of 70's, 80's, Brit rock, nu-metal, grunge and industrial, then get yourself along.
And don't forget next Saturday it's the Danse Macabre, a super duper goth night at the same venue.
