Stalls Circle - Row C - centre block (bench seats) - on each side. SC Standing - the 4 nearest the stage on each side - behind the high chairs.

Re The Independent's pieces on Sunday - I've received this from Jenny Gilbert - 'The byline Jenny Gilbert (me) was very clearly displayed at the top of the piece as it always is. The Ferel Beast normally carries the writer's name but Matthew Bell was away last week so the column was anonymous'.

Thanks for the advice which I'll rememember in future. This time I logged off and on again. Once I got rid of the spinning circle it all went very well.

I clicked to add 1 SC standing to my basket and have spent 25 minutes watching a circle spinning round - it's still spinning. I'm going to log off and start again.

24 - 28 April (mat on 28) I must declare an interest - I am playing Arthur, the boy's father. www.putneyartstheatre.org.uk Reserve by email or phone. Bill Boyd

I am sure that some ballet critics write their 'review' before the performance.

Symphony in C ends next RB season - Following 2 Acts of McGregor A Triple McGregor Bill would be a good idea. (Not to end the season)

Irmgard - Maybe John meant your full name including surname.

I agree that anonymous letters are not 'good'. I also accept that some of the contents of this letter are abusive and not helpful. That said - I agree with what the letter says about Wayne Eagling and his 'resignation' from ENB. Let us try to separate the issue of anononous letters from the issue of Wayne Eagling's departure from ENB.

I did not write this. But, for what it's worth, will endorse it. If there is to be a petition - I'll sign it. Bill Boyd (photo on profile)

The 'extras' are now on the ROH website.

Ismene Brown and others have used the term 'triparite directorship' - and the creation of the two posts of 'Artistic Associates'. When did this come about? Are the Artistic Associates honorary titles?

Coughing at the ROH has reached epidemic proportions. For opera and ballet performances.

Clearly, Sergei is not well. He is very vulnerable. He needs support - I hope he gets support from the ballet world.

Even now, I wonder if it would be possible for Sergei and the RB, on reflection, to agree that a period of sick leave might be the thing to do.

Tuesday's Press Release beggars belief.

Front 4 rows in the Linbury have just been released.
