This Week in Chester
Tonight, Wednesday, the Chester Playhouse is opening their final stage event of the season with "The Red Row" featuring Frank MacKay @ 8pm. The show runs until Saturday with a matinee performance at 2pm that day.
Frank
enthralls the audience with his tale of growing up as the son of a
hard-working miner in Stellarton back in the 1950s. His gripping
narrative brings home the trials of a simpler life in rural Nova Scotia
and the brotherhood that existed between the coal miners and their
families.
We have a new playmate in our sand box. "Going
Coastal" fine art and furnishings has joined us here in the Hamlet and
you can find them @ 41 Queen Street in the heart of the 'hood.

Buddy
has 3 bags at the airline check in at London Heathrow. He puts them
down and says to the young lady, "I'd like you to send this one to Los
Angeles, that one to Hong Kong and the last one to Durban." Her face
shows signs of confusion before her training takes over and she says,
"I'm afraid we can't do that, sir."
"Why not? You did the last time I flew with you."
