Thanks Pat. The best entertainment that I have had for years at least since
I last saw them at His Majesty's in another life, a long, long, time ago.
The tears of laughter were streaming down my face. And I heard Prince Harry
being referred to as the "loon". It may be that some of our non Aberdeen
born friends may have problems and I dont think there were sub-titles
Thanks again
George
