2990 - Milk, no alcohol

Today after work, had a free night out
Went to the Halle at Bridgewater Hall
Four pieces of music, firstly by Strauss
(Richard), then a Chopin concerto, full
Of rapid notes which strongly impressed all
The concert-goers, and no doubt, listeners
Live on Radio 3 tonight. Half-time called
And, like last time, walked quickly out the doors
And up to Oxford Road shops, the main cause
Being to buy a drink of milk, about
Five times cheaper than drinks back in the hall
The second half of the concert, it was
Beethoven-themed, the final tour de force
His First Symphony, which had us enthralled
