Nearly missed today's PROM as it was so so so popular!
The queue was all the way to Imperial Collage London,
student union means it is a dame long queue!
But met some really funny tourists, borrowed my bike
then caught by the police and told me stories of Micheal Fagan
who broke into Buckingham Palace in the 1980s!
So random but entertaining!
ticket no. 593...there were only a few more who got in
and quite a number of people were turned away.
It was such a popular Prom,
Rachmaninov and Nikolai Luganski
It was exquisite! not only Rachmaninov but all three pieces.
It was irritating people were coughing or making noise almost
deliberately between the movements.
Anyway, it was a fubulous night!
