Jolly Boating Weather (?) Leicester University Boat Race

Sunday was spent down by the river doing something none of us had done before -watching the boat race!  OK it was Leicester University Boat Race and not a Cambridge blue in sight - but it was good fun with a great atmosphere.

Since three of us have attended DMU - or Leicester Poly as was all pressure was on the good old DMU boat to make it to the winning line in first place - and it didn't disappoint - thrashing (no sorry is that too vitriolic!!) winning by a length from the Leicester University crew.  Needless to say there were cheers all round!

Bring on Ghostbusters now!

Off to see Richard III

Had a great afternoon in Leicester visiting the Guildhall exhibition and dropping into Phoenix Square.  With that strange and unexpected object, the sun, appearing in the sky on Sunday afternoon, we headed off intrepidly for a date - back in time - with Richard III. As this was one of our first trips as The App we had a fun time getting to know each other - with a trip that probably ended up with more time spent enjoying tea and cake than admiring the bones of the 'car park King' - but a good time was had by all and we did pay our respects in the cathedral.

So enthused were we with all things cultural that we took advantage of the fine weather to wander over to the Phoenix Square - just in time for Kev to pick up the very last ticket for Ghostbusters - Social Cinema.

Next Sunday we're planning to visit the Leicester Boat Race and see the Richard III film (introduced by Lin Foxall) at the Phoenix in the afternoon.
