ah Beatrice, Emma Thompson in the photo... I look rather more like she did in Nanny McPhee ...

'Much ado about nothing', I went to see the play at the theatre but had to leave early to catch the last train, I never did find out how it ended :-( maybe it is time to read it.

Could have been worse, I might have been Lady Macbeth :-)

Funny how things stick isn't it, I can still recite this even though it's 40 odd years since I read it.

"Come, you spirits
That tend on mortal thoughts, unsex me here,
And fill me from the crown to the toe top-full
Of direst cruelty. Make thick my blood.
Stop up the access and passage to remorse,
That no compunctious visitings of nature
Shake my fell purpose, nor keep peace between
The effect and it! "
