Thinking hard about what I'm most pleased with this year (self-congratulatory) and obviously it was very wonderful that we got through to the regional final with the Pillowman even though we were subsequently robbed of prospective national success by a cheap suited adjudicator. And obviously it was very wonderful that we got a review of kindness for Antig from Mr D in the Evening News even though we were subsequently robbed of Fringe glory by, hmmm. But I think I'm more pleased by the £133 which went subsequently to Amnesty Internat. Maybe this will herald the beginning of a most charitable 2010.

Happy new year (when it comes) dear readers.
