Back about 8 months ago, Anne Marie was able to book a bunch of tickets to go see Peter Kay at the O2 Arena in east London. I would have never heard of this guy except that he was a famous comedian here in England and had disappeared off the radar for many years, and now he is back! So there has been a lot of hype about his show and it was apparently very difficult to get tickets, so well done Anne Marie. There were 10 of us all going together to it, and we combined it with an early dinner at Cote Brasserie down near London Bridge at Hays Galleria, then took the Tube to the O2 where we enjoyed the show!
We had nose bleed seats, but it was really fun!
One of the funny things about this event was that there was a train strike going on which started at 9pm. So that meant that we could all get into London just fine but would not be able to get back home at the end of the evening. Fortunately someone realized this before today, so we had a workaround plan! Gordon would drive the Haywards Heath Rugby Club bus and we'd park it somewhere close enough to be able to take the Tube (rather than the train), then make our way back to it and drive home after the event. So just the 4 of us drove the 'Fun Bus' up to Balham and used 'Just Park' app to find a driveway big enough for this 20 passenger van, then all 10 of us rode back in it afterwards. It was a really long afternoon/ evening, but super fun!
