A wonderful weekend of musicals and meetups!

Saturday night brought us to The Helix in DCU for "All or Nothing" the story of The Small Faces. 

I love a musical so I was delighted when Amy invited me along to this show.

I had never been to The Helix before and I was very pleasantly surprised. Even better was the trip over on the bus - we took the number 11 which went from the top of my road all the way over to Dublin City University.  Amy got on the same bus at Dawson Street.

Amy dressed for the occasion in a blue 1960's mod looking dress. While I went straight to the theatre from work so was not in a mod outfit.

The show was amazing with brilliant singing performances from all of the actors but in particular the actors who played Steve Marriot's mother and also the two actors who played young and old Steve.

I woke up humming "All of Nothing" which is always a good sign that I enjoyed a show!

Hopefully the show will return to Dublin because my mother was raging that she hadn't been invited as she was a big fan of The Small Faces in their day.

On Sunday it was breakfast with Amy & Alice in Doheny &Nesbitts to make plans for our upcoming trip to Key West Florida. Amy arrived at the pub to find it closed so she rang them and asked them  to open up for her as she was outside! The friendly barman asked if she was looking for breakfast and said he would open up and sort her out for a bite to eat. 

We have been having breakfast in Doheny's fairly regularly - it is a convenient spot and the breakfast hits the spot.  I enjoy their tasty omelettes which I got again today. 

Excitement sure is building for our upcoming holiday.  This time next week we will be on the way to Miami where we will pick up a car and then drive to Key West. Fun times ahead!
