A night out

That's the last time that I allow Jan to book theatre tickets.
We went to see Chris Addison the other night at the Harrogate Theatre.
'We have to get there early because we have to pick up the tickets,' I was reliably informed. We arrived to pick up the tickets only to find that they didn't have them. After a check through all the options we were asked if they had been booked with 'See' tickets.
'Sounds good,' said the sage of Ripon, so the box office kindly checked with the company and printed out our tickets. So far so goodish.
Anyway we eventually found our seats but only after a long walk. Just to say that I've never climbed so high in a theatre before.
The 'Balcony' is not good, it is bad. It's so high you get a perfect view of any performer's bald spot.
Each seat comes with an individual oxygen supply and a box of tissues for the inevitable nose bleed. The seat are not numbered, as a tribute, they are named after all the people who have climbed Everest.
And then to add insult to injury Chris Addison came onto the stage and pointed up at us and said, "you poor sods have paid the same price as all these people down here in the comfortable seats."
So bloody funny.
