Just for One Day

The story of Band Aid /Live Aid told musically at the Old Vic tonight with my friend Jo. Absolutely brilliant, funny, with familiar sing along tunes and surprisingly emotional…. All those memories of the 80’s.

We were at university in Nottingham on July 13th 1985 and worried about boyfriends and exams - not famine, at least not until Bob Geldof made us worry about it. We watched Live Aid at my student house together with loads of other friends and plenty of alcohol…

Jo had got me surprise tickets for my 60th birthday. It’s been a fabulous evening.
