Yes, DS2 is the qualified bouncer. It's the only course he's done since leaving school (and he's now 28). I won't derail the thread too much about him but we've spent the whole afternoon filling in more forms online with him.
We're hoping he'll be with us soon (in our village) although he is aware that we do not have any opportunities here for bouncers (qualified or otherwise).
DS2 did tell us that he had ejected Picard more than once when he was looking after Linney, so maybe his skills were useful.
Anyway - on to the play.
The play itself was a good play - it was just the way it was acted that made it the stuff of nightmares.
It was Whisky Galore! which has great possibilities. Unfortunately it was performed by the denizens of the (very small) troupe of actors in the next village - all seven of them, and four of them English to boot.
A big problem was the fact that most of the characters in Whisky Galore! are from the Hebrides, but we were treated last night to a range of bizarre accents - Gloucestershire, Belfast, Kerry................................anything other than the Hebrides.
The English characters in the play had the wrong voices as well - not posh enough..............................
Oh, and none of them could remember their lines, or project their voices, so we had trouble hearing them.
All in all, a disaster. We only went because our friend directed it.
I have no idea what I'm going to say to her when we next meet up.
