Pantomime

[lentilbake]

I am mad, I booked a panto for tomorrow and I gave 4children between the ages of 3 and 7, 2 have special needs. The person i was meant to be going with is no longer able to go with me so i ahve to take them all on my own!

Good luck with that!

Is there not anyone around who could come with you?

have 4children rather than gave!

i,m "advertising" now, sparklingbaubles, christmas is a sad lonely time for me being single mum and no family or friends around but i try and make the best of it and do as many nice things as poss but theres only one friend is around enough to help with anyhing and she has an ill family now

Whereabouts are you?

oxford

A long way from here -hope someone comes along who may be able to help.

i've sent emails out to local people but dont hold much hope

Is there any chance if you go alone it will be ok?

i dont know, one with special needs will probably be ok apart from continence issues so i will ahve to go out (and take others with me) to toilet during performance probably and other special needs one will probably scream, climb all over seats etc so i'll ahve to take him out to avoid disturbing others and that menas all the othres will miss out too

I'm sorry lentil.

i did it, I coped, three childrn loved it, one of the special needs one cried when itw ent darka nd when he saw scary characters but didnt cry loudly and stopped when i turned him away and cuddled him , glad I did it :)

good for you lentil x

That's fantastic lentil I was thinking about you today. I am so happy the children didn't miss out.
