<p style="font-size:16px">This week we went to see Julius Caesar performed by the Globe Theatre at Doddington Hall. The weather was near perfect at we sat down in our fold up seats to eat our picnic prior to the performance.</p>

<p>A two hour Shakespeare play is not everyone's cup of tea or glass of wine or whisky chaser however it was well performed and most people know the plot so it's no secret the Caesar is assassinated by his closest allies. It is somewhat similar to current politics with the Tories turning on their leader. Alas, Boris is still Prime Minister as I write this.</p>

<p style="font-size:16px">The following day we travelled up to Scunthorpe to see Top Gun 2. The contrast between Shakespeare and this was extreme. This was pure escapism with rampant egotism and machismo on display throughout the film. As Helene pointed out "boys and their big toys".</p>

<p>It was a good film, edge of the seat stuff, and the flying was breathtakingly scary. I'm not sure how much of it was real flying or CGI but it was all very good.</p>
