Today was the day of the Pantomime but first we had to go to Margate Hospital for Ray to see his Surgeon and to get is back Op signed off.
We were in and out of there in a few moments but the poor Doctor had the flu and told Ray not to get to near to him. He had 25 Patients to see and was worried he wasn’t going to get through the day. You don’t expect you Doc to get ill.
Anyway he was pleased with Ray and has signed him off but to come back if he has any problems with it.
We carried on into Canterbury through long traffic jams as the many shoppers poured into the city.
Parking in the Park and Ride at new Dover Road I had promised my fellow motohomers on face book some photos of the motorhome parking overflow. So many park here on their way to or from France as they travel onto Spain.
Although this is a car park it is used as an overflow as few cars use park here.
We caught the bus into the city, did some shopping and had lunch before meeting up with our friends from the Camping and Caravan Club at the Marlow Theatre
We were here to see Peter Pan, starring Shaun Williamson (EastEnders and Extras), Wendi Peters (Coronation Street), children’s favourites Gemma Hunt (CBeebies’ Swashbuckle), David Ribi (Channel 5’s Milkshake) and Samantha Dorrance (CBeebies’ The Tale Of Mr Tumble). The show also featured the hilarious Marlowe favourites Ben Roddy and Lloyd Hollett.
Once again, the show was written and directed by Paul Hendy and brought to us by Evolution, the same creative team behind last year’s award-winning show, Dick Whittington (which was seen by over 95,000 people!). With lots of audience participation and spectacular special effects, this promised to be the biggest and
funniest pantomime ever.
I laughed all the way through It was the best pantomime I have ever seen. I even cried because I thought Tinkerbell had been killed. I was glad it was dark in the theatre. In fact I got very emotional with the fact I was still here and was able to enjoy the whole experience.
We then travelled back to the park and ride for a meal together at the Old Gate Inn. It was great to have a good chat and we will soon be able to get out into a field somewhere and spend weekends camping again.
A Target to be able to see next years Pantomime – It’s Cinderella.
