From my OP you can see my memory is a bit wonky as I thought it was gentle rain but it clearly wasn't. But we did stand under a tree so perhaps not so bad there.

The only bit I didn't like was Ms Jenkins' introduction where she said Pavrotti was born in ModeRRRRRna. She rolled the r's. Silly woman, he comes from Modena.
