This is sort of a serious poll for me. As you know, a while ago I started using pictures/graphics to head up my posts. After a bit of time, I was told they were causing problems for some so I changed the theme template to solve the problem. However, this still doesn’t answer a question […]

Back in 2007 the world learned that Andrew Lloyd Webber was writing a sequel to his world famous musical, The Phantom of the Opera. At that time he revealed the setting would be New York rather than Paris, the setting of the original story. Little more than that was known (at least by me) until
