Yes - I'm fine. I've broken my specs and my new ones aren't ready yet. I'm fine for driving during the day but find night driving without them difficult (and unsafe). My promised chauffeur couldn't make it at the last minute...

I emailed Al about 7pm - but he probably didn't get the email until later.

Were Scottish Alan and Carol there? It would have been their last night before their removal to Edinburgh. I'll miss their singing - particularly Alan, who must have one of the finest bass-baritone voices anywhere.
