Good on yer, Nell! My Christmas meet-up with friends, cancelled on Wednesday because of the snow, is a possibility now for that Wednesday. If that doesn't work out and there are tickets left, it's a date! ;D
I wonder if Manuela, Maz or AnnieM can make it? Oh, or Lassie?
Thanks for finding this, Uke. Rufus gave a reading for this event a few years ago, too.

All right, Nell! I think Rufus would be pleased to know that his presence there sold another ticket for that great cause. Music is a joy and a wonderful therapy for those in special need, and for everyone else for that matter. If I had the bucks (and er, a passport-need to get on that one) I would happily join you. Have fun! Will our Rooftop-ready photographer be attending too ? (ha ha)
