Jonathan, I love re-reading this so much. I was one of the two thousand there that first night, and waited a long time to see you again on stage last night; it was a joy. A revolution’s just a circle after all, as I quoted today on meeting friends for the second time as we walked in different directions around the site. Welcome back!
I’d wondered in Edinburgh last month if everyone knew the ropes re the key card. I don’t recall the first time I had your same experience.
I don’t know how I missed this recounting from 2012—guess cause it’s hit or miss on Fb. But I do recall reading that you tore up the place and ran out of merch…is that right? An incredible treat for the planet that you’re back. XO
I've had a couple similar experiences. In one hotel, I could not for the life of me figure out how to transition the water flow from the tub faucet to the shower head. I finally had to call the front desk.
And several of the hotels we stayed at on a tour of France had motion detectors in the hallways. Step out of your room and the hall lights go on. After a few minutes, the lights go off. I was lingering in the hallway talking to someone when the lights went out, and our startled jump reactivated them.
I enjoyed this then, more than 10 years ago and still enjoying it today. Wish I could’ve been at Shrewsbury to see you with the sentiment again.

Thank you Wendy-Jane. It was great to be back.

Yes my first time in Shrewsbury the reception was amazing!

I love those quirky travel experiences! Thanks for reading, Jenni.
