Shame we are so far from Barnstaple! So pleased Gareth is getting some shows to do, lots of fun by the looks of it.

It's a really interesting article and good to read that Gareth has invested in property so much. Shame that he lost money through a dishonest trader, an expensive lesson but one that he has learned from and now trades himself. He's obviously always had the work ethic and been careful with his money,

Thanks Doris, nice to see him out running even if it was freezing and good to hear that he will be doing a gig, even if it is in Dubai!!

This is a brilliant idea, well done the National lottery. It will hopefully mean that some theatres will earn enough money that they will be able to stay in business. It would be great if Gareth's panto in Cardiff is one of the ones included even though I probably wouldn't be going.

Listening to Tony Blackburn on Radio 2 and he played 'Sunshine', so good to hear it as I always thought it should have been a bigger hit than it was.! I'm in Cumbria and it has been sunshine for the last few days so very appropriate!

Thanks Doris, a good article from the Daily Mail - wow!! It looks to me that he wasn't happy being photographed, especially as they had posted the lovely photos the day before, but at least the press are being nice!

It is. We can be outside with 6 people but inside with 3 from 2 different households or up to 6 from one household. Not private houses or gardens, just public places. Where I live the pubs and restaurants won't take bookings unless it's as I said.

I had wondered that too Khelda, it's obvious now
Good luck to them, hope it's a success.

There was also an instagram of them all drinking cocktails together - doesn't say who the other person is.

Thanks Dorral for all that information. Looks like a great afternoon and lovely weather, shame Gareth hasn't told us about it 0 -
I was surprised when I was watching that no one was wearing a mask even if they didn't have to. There were only 300 allowed in so definitely socially distanced and they are fortunate in snooker that the events are all sponsored so not dependant on making money. I can't imagine many theatres would be able to make a show financially viable with such a small audience.

Maybe this year Gareth will be able to have a proper Christmas with friends and family but it must be such a worry for anyone involved who won't have any income at all for the foreseeable future. Gareth has earned a lot of money over the years but a lot actors and theatre people will be really struggling.

It would be a great idea. I know Sir Andrew Lloyd Webber is being very proactive even doing the Oxford vaccine trials to try to get things moving. Fingers crossed they find a vaccine soon that will help us all to get back to some kind of normal life.

I feel so sad for all of the people who work in the theatre in any capacity. Very worrying times for them, I can't imagine too many theatres will be opening this year

Lucky Barnstaple, I think a lot of families will want to see this with no proper Pantos this year.
