Woke around 0800. Tea and porridged out on the suntrap balcony with Midori and Dan. Another scorcher on the cards. They popped into the village to get some provisions and I took the opportunity to do my exercises on the balcony. Midori had brought her hairdressing scissors and gave me a bit of a tidy up.
Headed for Marazion around 1100. The place was packed with Bank Holiday visitors. Fortunately the overflow car park serving visitors to St Michael’s Mount was huge and we found a space…Dan paid the £5 parking fee. We walked along the beach and then shuffled across the causeway toward the impressive island….we turned back at the gate and walked into town.
Lunched at The Godolphin…bright, modern pub with views of the Mount. Drove on to Porthcurno. I dropped the gang at the beach car park, then parked up at the Minack and walked back down the hill. Joined Aki and chums in the queue for ice cream then we headed down to the beach…it was rammed! Aki and I climbed the stone staircase up to the theatre car park so she knew where I’d parked up, and I gave her the key then walked across the field to Seabreeze. The director and her fella are stopping there…a big modern detached house built for holiday letting…they are sharing with about seven others. The whole company rocked up for notes.
Femi seemed in a very strange mood…very subdued. Nick had a run in the the director over the ignition of the harpoon, accusing her of cutting off her nose to spite her face…Angharad visibly bristled. I snuck out before the end to sort out my guitar ahead of sound check. Evening show was a sellout. Nick was slightly under par, but seemed OK. We were granted an enthusiastic reception at curtain call. Met Aki, Midori and Dan at the car. Drove back to Mousehole in the dark. Midori and Dan had really enjoyed the show. Eventually got to bed around midnight after a quick shower…
