Just bought a ticket to see Les Mis on tour even though I promised myself I'd wait until I had a new job first >< I'm just getting panicky now that I'll be spending a short spell unemployed and at least this way I know I'll be seeing it at least once no matter what. Then if/when I get a new job, I'll be able to buy more tickets. Ideally I'd like to see it 3 times, more if it can be afforded but I doubt it will be affordable unless I somehow get a REALLY well paid job.

I'm very excited already though, I shall be seeing it on its opening night in Manchester. I've never been to Manchester before, so I might try and get there early and make a day of it. I can't check train tickets this far in advance but I suspect I'm going to have to drive (as I think I'll miss the last train when at the show). Which is fine, I'm just slightly concerned with expense as it'll cost me in fuel to get there as well as the £15 to park in the NCP. Hopefully I'll manage on one tank of fuel (I don't see why I shouldn't, Manchester is only 2.5 hours away via car).
