We went to The Savoy for dinner on our 3rd wedding anniversary followed by Legally Blonde at the theatre next door. I'd booked us a 2 course and glass of champagne special offer deal which we of course supplemented with an additional bottle of wine. Obviously I checked us in on Facebook at the Savoy and got a few "likes" but I did feel like I was being a bit of a show off. It's actually not that swanky in there. The service is faultless but I was sort of expecting it to be a bit intimidating and it really isn't. After dinner it was next door to the theatre. I'd seen the film Legally Blonde but didn't know much about the musical version other than the fact that Lee Mead was playing Emmett. I'm always a little wary of going to see shows where I don't know the songs too well but with Legally Blonde I didn't find this a problem at all. I was very impressed with Carley Stenson who was playing Elle Woods as she used to annoy me in Hollyoaks back in the day. But Elle Woods is no Steph Dean and Stenson's performance was excellent. I genuinely laughed out loud a lot and in particular at the courtroom scene. I thoroughly recommend it! We had a great time celebrating and topped it off with more wine and some tv karaoke when we got home. Perhaps not the best plan for a Monday night in retrospect - but I had a lovely anniversary and I'm sure my husband did too.
