Day 250 - Photograph 51

Woke up nice and early this morning (still enjoying that extra hour in bed now that we are back on GMT!) to be greeted by thin sunshine but with the promise of another lovely autumn day. The morning was spent on chores, followed by a trip to Kingston.

We had forgotten that it was half-term week so beat a quick retreat once we had done that which we had to do. Al very efficient though I did fail to find the designated electric vehicle charging spaces in the car park. 

Arrived home just in time to see England fail to play out the draw in Dubai against Pakistan. A valiant attempt by the tail-enders but they had left themselves to much to do. 

Up to London to the theatre this evening. Had a pre-theatre meal at Côte (they must be doing something right as they kept on turning potential customers away!).

The play itself was based on the true story of the discovery of the DNA structure and the role played by Rosalind Franklin. Her work proved to be influential in the Crick/Watson/Wilkins paper though this was only made public posthumously. Nicole Kidman plays the lead role in an understated but intense manner. Not a blockbuster but thought provoking and a great evening out!
