Re: the Hamlet dates... I'm in NZ for most of the london run. Bugger. (Scrabbles in diary for possible date that I can make before leaving the country).
Still, upside, I'm in NZ - e.g. summer - for Xmas...
... I'm in NZ for Xmas... oh ARSE, that means I will miss the Doctor Who Xmas special! (makes pleading eyes at everyone for people to record the Xmas special in my absence -- since iPlayer is unlikely to still have it available by the time I'm back in Jan...)
