Dear friends gifted us a generous voucher to a posh restaurant in Leeds City Centre. We decided this evening the most appropriate to use it since we had tickets to a Christmas pantomime. We were treated to uniquely prepared delicious dishes such as steak, pheasant, fish, and paella. Mocktails, which we rarely treat ourselves, were enjoyed by everyone. 😉
Early for our panto, we walked city centre enjoying colourful lights and a bubbling fountain.
This year’s panto at Carriageworks theatre was Sleeping Beauty complete with one of our family’s favourite comedic actors! They are so creative with their Leeds/Yorkshire based jokes and never cease to amaze us when engaging the audience. The costumes are colourful and ornate. And we all enjoyed the actors’ creativity when scene changes went not exactly to plan. 😆 We laughed, sang, and even danced as this captivating theatre played out.
Now we feel the Christmas season is complete since we have experienced our annual (last year we began this tradition when my mother visited) panto. ☺️Our family is very thankful to our generous friends who treated us to tea (dinner) which tastily enhanced our evening out on the town!
