What is recorded here
This blue commemorative plaque records: When Ellen and Catherine were little, we took them to the pantomime at the Apollo on George Street. We had seats in the front row of the balcony. At the time, Catherine was rather fond of anything with silky labels (like ribbon), which she should use as a comforter. Unfortunately, on that occasion, she had her favourite pair of M&S knickers with her. At a crucial, dramatic moment in the pantomime, she let out a shriek, as the knickers fell out of her hands, over the balcony and onto the head of a woman sitting below. Recorded plaque organisation: Local Historical Society.
