Between the 16th and 22nd of August 2004 I took a trip... some may say as a course of therapy.
I flew to London to visit my cousin and to watch her perform in The Phantom of The Opera. Along the way I took photos of various tourist attractions and made faces at a beefeater.
From London I flew to Edinburgh where the festival season was in full swing. I stayed with a friend of many years and saw more shows than I can count.
Below there will follow a number of diary entires which should cover the most enjoyable parts of the grandly titled, "Mike's Big Adventure". There may also be a show review or two thrown in for good measure.
Special thanks must be extended to Claire and Helen for being great hosts and for turning a straight forward romp into a truely sanity affirming holiday. The week would have been nothing without the support of such great friends. Cheers
Mike
