In the beginning

After a particularly acute attack of Livejournal nostalgia and a vague knowledge of the professional potential of publishing my writing for the world to see, I have extended my Google identity to include a blog (and I have joined Twitter!). The occasion I have chosen for this less-than momentous achievement is last week's broadcast of the National Theatre's production of Frankenstein, which I just managed to see, by attending the pre-recorded matinee in the afternoon and travelling into the depths of Surrey to see the reverse casting at the cinema. I will publish my review shortly, because a tweet was only 10% of what I wanted to write and I thought it would be bad form to tweet more than twice about one thing.

The title is a reference to my earlier Livejournal, where I pictured myself as somewhat of a traveller. Now settled for the foreseeable future in London, the world will at least revolve while I watch and I hope to include observations, reviews and interesting facts I pick up en route.
