To the Beatles

I ran my daughter and her friend to the Beatles show in Manchester on Tuesday. The fog and black ice were so bad that it took me two hours to get there. I did not feel like going home and then running to pick them up after the show. So when the opportunity arose to purchase a ticket in the foyer, I snapped it up.
What an experience! I thoroughly enjoyed myself. The only song they sang I did not care for was "Yesterday." The tune was good, but the words-- why should the Beatles sing about yesterday with such a glorious future in front of them? Are they cheesed off with fame and success?
They certainly deserve the MBE, but that night's audience should get the OBE for getting there!
