Going back to my 2004 journal, I read something I had completely forgotten about! I've seen Raphael's Lady with Unicorn three times, not twice.

Oh yes, it was in 2004 that we met in London. How time flies. And we ate a lovely curry dinner too. Who did we see in Phantom? JOJ I guess, but who was Christine? KKA? What has happened to my Phantom memory? When I was younger I all of these things fixed firmly in my memory. But I'd seen the show less times then, lol.

Oh no, we were spared for the horror called KKA... We saw Rachel Barrell, and it was the first time I saw her in the role (or second? I have a vague memory of seeing POTO the day before as well... ehe...). We were both very impressed, I remember that much.

Darn, I took a lot of photos that day, but they're all lost in my dad's crashed computer.

I guess we have a 4 year anniversary this month.... hehe.

It's true, it was Rachel. I think it was your first time but that you maybe saw her the day after as well. I don't think you had seen her before because now I remember I was going on about how much of a better singer that KKA she is.
But it was JOJ right? Earl came later didn't he?
