He's behind you ..... again!

The Ducklings playgroup had tickets to see ' Dick Wittington and His Magical Cat' at the Granville Theatre in Ramsgate. These tickets were provided by Cllr Alan Marsh (KCC) who has helped support the playgroup over the years.

I took James out of school for the afternoon so he could come with us and I also invited Josh to come. There must have been about 15 kids, plus parents and playgroup staff. We were allocated the front two rows. The kids and I sat in the front row.

Compared to the production at the Marlowe...this panto was pretty lame, but the kids all enjoyed it. The acting was dodgy, the dancing was even dodgier, and as for the jokes....if I say the funniest it got was 'knock knock'...'who's there?'.... 'boo'...'boo who?'...'well there's no need to cry', you'll understand...yes the jokes were really that bad!

James got picked to go up onto the stage near the end of the show...he was asked his name and age and got to join in a song. The kids that went on stage were given a bag of sweets for helping and they went back to their seats for the final minutes of the show.

At the end of the show James very kindly shared his sweets, however Josh got a huge boiled sweet stuck in his throat and I had to stick my fingers down to get it out...he was fine but is scary when things like that happen.
