Sherwood Diary: Port Pirie to Whyalla, then on to Cleve
Our overnight in Port Pirie was noisy due to being in the town and next door to a shopping centre. Nevertheless, we slept well and it was good to feel safe in the RV park. It was cloudy when we set off, but became a mostly sunny day, and a bit difficult driving north towards […]

Sherwood Diary: St Kilda to Port Pirie
At the end of the day I tried to work out how we ended up arriving here so late yesterday. Part of the answer was not leaving St Kilda until about 11:00 am. We felt quite relaxed knowing we only planned to drive 200kms so took our time getting ready to leave. We looked out […]

Sherwood Diary: Homeward bound today
The rehearsal and performance was not quite as tiring as I had imagined. We arrived at 11.30 a.m. to get signed in and seated and the rehearsal itself got underway about half an hour later. The show is about two hours long, with an interval and we actually had a 15 minute break in the […]

Sherwood Diary: it’s Sunday morning and our last day and night at the caravan park
It’s been raining a fair bit over the last couple of days and we’ve just been going out for our G&S shows. Friday night was Trial by Jury held in an actual courtroom in the district court building. There was a security check as we went in and G&S staff made us line up so […]

We had a restful day at home, with a meal of leftover curry I had made and took apples and drink to the rehearsal. We actually feel quite good this morning, but have spent […]

Sherwood Diary: Tuesday and Wednesday in Adelaide
We spent Tuesday in the State Library, Museum and Art Gallery area, apart from when I made a bolt for the Rundel Street Mall to buy yet another black top for the choir performance on Sunday. I wasn’t that happy with the first one, but this one should fit the bill. Hopefully there will be […]

Sherwood Diary: two G&S festival events and a visit to Mount Barker in the Adelaide Hills
We enjoyed the matinee performance of Pirates. We are very familiar with this opera as Stephen was in a production in Perth last year. Although this was a professional cast I think both versions were very good. It was interesting to see Her Majesties Theatre, somewhat modest in comparison to His Majesties Theatre in Perth, […]

Sherwood Diary: Stephen took sick leave for two days
His negative RAT from yesterday morning. He has had a headache and slight cold symptoms. He is feeling much better today with no headache and no cold symptoms. On Thursday I scurried around getting washing done. Although it was much easier than the last time we decided to do the towels and bedding, so that […]
