Saturday 18th October 2025

 

Aki cooked omelette for breakfast, before heading off up the road to help planting out the communal flower boxes on Sussex Way. I walked to Stoke Newington via Highbury Barn, stopping off at Gail’s to pick up a sandwich for later. Worked with Sean on some physical delineation of his five split personalities for King Gregg…he’s not a natural, so didn’t get very far, but hopefully sowed a seed or two for him to work on…I think his costume changes are going to have to take most of the strain. Got a bus back home. Aki and I then set off for Waterloo…we’d booked a table at a tapas bar on The Cut, but arrived about half an hour early, so took a stroll down Lower Marsh, a lively destination of an evening. We over ordered at the tapas bar…portions are in my experience usually rather parsimonious, but we had to order a doggy bag! Walked across to the Free Association venue in Union Street Arches for an hour of comedy improv…based around a spoof TV hospital drama. Recognised one of the girls in the cast…she’d lead the Beginners Improv classes I attended in Camden about seven years ago! It was a very entertaining evening, though would have been better if my left ear wasn’t blocked!
