Carlos Acosta’s Nutcracker in Havana - ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️. Tchaikovsky with a Cuban twist, both the dance and music. This’ll be a highlight of 2026. 🩰 🇨🇺 (4 Feb)

Fawlty Towers: the play - ⭐️⭐️⭐️. Good fun and no surprises; but it just made me miss the original. (31 Jan) 🎭 @edinplayhouse.bsky.social

Inspiring to hear @michaelrosenyes.bsky.social reading from his books, The Death of Eddie and Many Kinds of Love. Exploring grief & mortality, young & old, meningitis & covid. A powerful recount also of ICU care. Lots of humour too. Thanks, Michael. 🎭 📖 @lyceumedinburgh.bsky.social #thetimesaredark

Robert Burns was the star today at @nationalgalleries.bsky.social. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 #robertburns #burnsnight

The Shawshank Redemption - ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️. Great performances, in particular by Red and Brooks. There was the occasional tear - but also some icky American accents. 🎭 @lyceumedinburgh.bsky.social

Les Miserables - ⭐️⭐️⭐️. Still an impressive show after 40 years, but tonight’s performance felt hasty and over-amped. Almost like a new orchestration. The big hits remained impressive, though. My mum would have loved it. 🎭 🎵

Welcoming 2026 with my first parkrun and a breezy harbour walk. 🏃 🛥️

Happy new year, all 🥳 - also celebrating 22 years ‘courting’ Graeme 😘 🎉

The last trip of the year to Edinburgh Zoo. 🐧

It was very cold at the top of the Hill. ❄️

Happy new year for when it comes.

A pre-Xmas trip to @edinburghzoo.bsky.social. It was getting dark, so there weren't many opportunities for photos. #pallascat #cheetah #giraffe #zebra #animalphotography #zoophotography

A flying visit to Northumberland Zoo on Sunday. The animals were out, despite the rain. 🎄 🎅 #snowleopard #arcticfox #meerkat #tawnyowl #animalphotography #zoophotography

A trip back to the grey seal pups at St Abb's Head Nature Reserve. This was a week ago. I suspect most of them are gone now. 🦭 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 #StAbbs #StAbbsHead #greyseals #animalphotography #wildlifephotography

Jack and the Beanstalk: the Panto - ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️. As ever, the good bits were great; the less good parts - there weren’t many - were silenced by the amps. Great fun for boys, girls and adults alike. The last panto season at the Festival Theatre before returning home to the King’s. (16 Dec) 🎭 🎵 🎅 🎄

We’re on our way to the Panto …

The grey seal pups are out and about at St Abb's Head National Nature Reserve. I've been twice in six days. These are photos from Monday's trip with my sister. #stabbs #stabbshead #greyseals #animalphotography #wildlifephotography

Concerto Budapest Symphony Orchestra - ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️. A great concert last night at the Usher Hall, including ‘the most famous symphony of them all’. 🎶 #DaDaDaDum #beethoven #beethovenfifth #beethoven5 #tchaikovsky #liszt #concertobudapest #paullewis #andraskeller (7 Dec)

(And dinner with my sister on Thursday night at Tattu Edinburgh.)

The Producers - ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️. Still one of my favourite musicals … 🎭 🎶 #theproducers #keepitgay #springtimeforhitler @theproducerslondon.bsky.social

Titanique - ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️. Completely, totally, ‘kooky crazy’. I loved it. 🎭 🎶 #titanique #celinedion #kookycrazy
