I went and saw The Nutcracker last night at the Opera House, it was amazing. I have not been to the ballet since I was like 4 so it was really all new again. A friend of mine had a spare ticket so invited me along with their lovely family. I was looking rather swish as well, but as it is humid and the temperature of Venus in Sydney at the moment, I got to the Opera House a total sweat ball. Very irritating as you spend all that time getting ready and then you are ready for another shower by the time you get to your venue. I even took great pains not to get over heated. I got ready slowly, drank cold water, opened every door and chimney flew, walked slowly rather than my usual tripod stride. Still I was a fountain of runny face. This is embarrassing when you have to meet people, “Hi I am a sweaty troll, nice to see you again”. Anyhoo I had a great night once the sweating had stopped.
