Another particularly jolly session last night.  Thankyou to all who were there and who threw themselves into the singing with such gusto.   “Alleluia” seemed to work well with the instrumental backing track, it was lovely to sing “Isn’t (s)he lovely” in honour of Barbara and Mike’s one-day old grandson and to join in with some wild Scottish folk too.  Thanks to Angela (alto) for the attached info about Willie Stewart – we look forward to Burns’ Night next year. 

 NEW CARDS 

As the snowdrops are out and birds are starting to build their nests Andrea (alto) has added some seasonal packs of cards to her website card shop. A pack of six for £10 inc P&P and limited availability (See attached flyer.) www.andreajenkins.co.uk/greetings-cards
