Sugar Plum FairyWriting about http://esales.roh.org.uk/christmas/video/nutcracker.aspx

Went to see this last night.  So pretty!  I am of course a Sugar Plum Fairy myself - have I ever told you the story?

I was, aged 6 or so, practicising before ballet class by ‘pirouetting’ down the hall.  Unfortunately, I twirled down the hall and straight through the glass front door.  And emerged, on the other side without a scratch.

Sadly I was forced to give up a promising career in ballet because I couldn’t reconcile the demands of weekly classes with the necessity of watching Grange Hill.
