Then we popped early to The Lyric Theatre as it closes early and my nap would get in the way. She said "Want a refund or new tickets for when they come back?". "Pardon, I thought they hadn't sold many tickets?". "No, it had nearly sold out, they were here setting up when the roof let in some rain and the drain flooded us with sewage, making the electrical equipment a bit scary"
"Lordy, yes, just give us 2 new tickets for that then"
So that will be why they didn't phone us to say "Cancelled" until a couple of hours beforehand
