[1] But not as strange as the seats right up at the top. Promenading in
the gallery presumably is even stranger.


Not been up there, isn't that the place to go if you've got a lady
friend?...

I used to go to the topmost place (was it called the gallery?) you didn't
have seats, it was all 'promenading'. Not many people wanted to go there
(presumably as it was almost literally out of the limelight g) the
acoustics were awfull but the atmosphere was the same.
