It's Clouds Illusions I Recall


The chaos surrounding the cloud over the UK touched me in several ways, not least the unexpected stopover by Vince and David in London. In the morning I was jealously wishing them well as they arrived in London and headed toward Heathrow. Before I realised what was going on their flights had been cancelled and I was calling around trying to get them tickets for a show. If they couldn’t be in New York that night, then at least they could be at the theatre – thanks, Peter Bull.

I met them both for dinner on Friday night and it was a real joy to chat with them again, even if Sean couldn’t make it. We talked over the fun times and I assured them that by Sunday they would be having breakfast at Tiffany’s.

Sadly it wasn’t to be and whilst I sympathise with their loss, I am extremely glad they are safe and Sean and I had the pleasure of entertaining them on Saturday night. For me, at least, it was a cloud with a silver lining.
