Firstly, DO NOT READ ON IF YOU HAVEN'T YET SEEN THIS PRODUCTION BUT HAVE TICKETS FOR IT.

My thoughts will be under the cut, but not if you come direct from email notification.  The first paragraph is spoiler free, unless you don't wish to learn about my feeling about FGW.

Benedict Cumberbatch playing Hamlet was always going to be on the "one to see" list.  I Haz Theatre Tickets relates how I came to get the tickets.  And then FGW decided the bank holiday weekend would be a good time to strike.  With the result the train we had booked would mean a journey of over three and a half hours instead of just under two.  Nevertheless FGW still sent me an email hoping I would enjoy my trip and providing top tips for making it better, with no mention of the strike.  If they treat their staff the same way they treat their passengers I'm not surprised they're on strike.  So, SM and I booked a Travelodge (at a reasonable price, despite only booking the day before) and thought a night away would be good for both of us.  Travelling worked quite well.
