What Was Your Highlight of the Week?
I’m a big fan of Laura Vanderkam's daily productivity podcast, Before Breakfast.
This is a very short daily tip to improve your productivity and your life.
A recent podcast suggested asking a friend or an acquaintance to share a positive experience, rather than asking, “How’s it going?” Which often brings the response “Fine!” or “Busy!”
My Highlight of the Week
Was going to the National Theatre to see London Tide. I managed to get cheap tickets in the Friday Rush, hoorah! So the tickets were only £10
This was based on Dicken’s Our Mutual Friend with music from PJ Harvey. It was based on London and the Thames. It was fantastic. All the actors were great, and we got a real thrill from recognising a few of them from the TV (we’re not very highbrow).
There was quite a lot of singing in it, which I wasn’t expecting. The female leads were amazing. Their vocal range was incredible.
The staging was magical, instead of just lugging the furniture off stage, the stagehand moved it delicately as if it was floating through the river.
