It says age 7 plus so there's nothing to stop any of us going.

[pete9012S]

Maybe it was last year as the date is wrong??

[Anita Bensoussane]

Interesting, Pete. It says 2015 at the top of the page, so maybe they've just made a mistake regarding the date of the Famous Five Show.

[Courtenay]

They also don't say who's playing "Julian"!

[Moonraker]

I wonder if he will also be telling people how to patronise girls.

[Courtenay]

Oh, you mean be patronising towards girls, don't you, Nigel? For a moment there I read that as "patronise" as in "to frequent as a customer"!!!

[Moonraker]

I didn't think it sounded right!

[Courtenay]

Oh, I'm glad to hear that.

The Famous Five Show is in Scotland Sue - a bit too far from many of us I'm afraid.

[Susan Webster]

I didn't need any training - it just happened naturally!

I understood what was meant here, even though the English wasn't quite correct! Maybe we're the only forumites on here who are on the same level of understanding, Nigel!

[Moonraker]

Yes, I don't even spot your typos any longer! Thanks for putting me straight, Courtenay, I would hate to give out the wrong signals...!
