It was getting pretty dark last night and, of course, it will be even darker by next time. Consequently we’ve made the decision to go to St. Peter’s Church next week at 5.45 (for 6.00) until 7.30. I’ll send a reminder early next week (probably Monday) together with a list of what we’ll be singing together with the usual choir news,
As we will be inside for the first time in about 18 months, please be super-safe and …
wear face masks until you are seated in the church
bring some hard-surface wipes to wipe down your seat, before and after the rehearsal
sanitise your hands when you arrive (Julia has arranged for a couple of squirters to be on hand)
We would also REALLY ask you take a lateral flow test (free from chemists shops and elsewhere) at some point on the day as a further precautionary measure and not come at all if you are ill or know you should self-isolate for any reason.
We will, of course, have as many doors and open as possible and we’ll continue to do without refreshments for a while yet.
Our recent questionnaire shows that the huge majority of the choir are happy to move indoors with appropriate safety measures in place but we obviously understand and respect the wishes of the few who have said they do not feel ready for this and will welcome them back when they feel the time is right.
