VISIT TO PALACE OF VARIETIES LEEDS

We set off from the Square, weather was not good – cold and wet.  However, we arrived in Leeds complete with our street map giving directions to hostelries, tea rooms, pubs, shops etc.  What a surprise Leeds is.  Fantastic City Centre, superb shops, lovely arcades with individual shops, brilliant real old pubs and an excellent market where Marks and Spencer began their life.  A stall is shortly to open here commemorating their start here.    Plenty of bargains to be had.  We arrived in good time to take our seats at the Theatre – and very good seats they were.  In the stalls at the front.  The show was most enjoyable with plenty of variety, a good Chairman and excellent comedians who gave us a real laugh.  The theatre awarded prizes for the best appropriate outfit and 3 of our ladies won – Beryl, Rosina and Mikki.  They looked great.  There were other good outfits as well – it all added to the atmosphere.  On our way back on the M62 we came through heavy snow and fog but arrived back safe and sound in Maghull – still raining!!  I think we all agreed a good day had been had by all.
