Tanguera at Sadlers Wells - August 22nd

As a birthday treat for Jane and certainly a treat for me as well, we went by train (1st class of course) to London. St Pancras International is marvellous! Is there a better station anywhere? Open and light and beautifully designed it holds many lovely shops and eating places. It is worth a trip in its own right.
Sadlers Wells is a short walk from Angel tube station and despite origins in 1683, it is a purpose built modern theatre. We had a sandwich in the foyer before the show. An Argentine group who have performed all over the world told the story of tango in dance. A young French girl arriving in the dock area of Buenos Aires, forced into prostitution before meeting her true love - yea, yea yea, you know the rest. Stunning dancing, an incredible spectacle.
Time for dinner, a fancy pastry in St Pancras and back home on the train.
A day out that was as good as it gets.
