Badly Guarded Girl

Badly Guarded Girl The advantages of living in London — easy access to the arts — but how much advantage do we take? All too often, like living beside Hampstead Heath, the advantage remains untaken.

Happily, last autumn’s Copenhagen-inspired bicycling has survived the winter and is now taking me through Kings Cross several days a week, and rebuilding the fitness lost to motoring. Arriving in town yesterday evening after a day spent fiddling with tiny software changes I felt in need of a lift. Miki was finishing at her paper and jscampered down to Covent Garden, where I got bar-stool seats under the roof of the Royal Opera House to see La Fille mal gardée, a sort of Disney ballet. A sfizioso and a little fizzy as well.
