Happy Yorkshire Day!
My adopted home since 1999.














01 August 2019
A Brexiteer backbencher suffers whiplash and concussion after falling off a chair during a meeting, while Avenue Q plays at Sheffield Lyceum.


GARY COLEMAN
Right now you are
down and out and
feeling really crappy
NICKY
I'll say.
GARY COLEMAN
And when I see how
sad you are
it sort of makes me...
happy!
NICKY
Happy?!
GARY COLEMAN
Sorry, Nicky, human nature --
nothing I can do!
It's...
schadenfreude!
Making me feel glad
that I'm not you!
NICKY
Well that's not very nice, Gary!
GARY COLEMAN
I didn't say it was nice! But everybody does it!
D'ja ever clap when a
waitress falls and drops
a tray of glasses?
NICKY
Yeah...
GARY COLEMAN
And it ain't it fun to
watch figure skaters
falling down on their asses?
NICKY
Sure!
GARY COLEMAN
And don'tcha feel all
warm and cozy,
watching people
out in the rain!
NICKY
You bet!
GARY COLEMAN
That's...
GARY AND NICKY
Schadenfreude!
GARY COLEMAN
People taking pleasure in your pain!
NICKY
Oh,
