Although we have no performances planned for the immediate future I can confirm that we have our usual spot in the Abbey Gardens for the Shaftesbury Fringe, Sunday 23rd July at 11.15 a.m. Put it in your diaries NOW! Gold Hill Fair arrangements are still to be confirmed. This coming week we will be singing Cry Heart once more, polishing Drive the Cold Winter Away, continuing our new song Shaftesbury Delights, making a start on When I was One and Twenty and Where Shall I Be (held over from last time) together with We Wish You Joy to welcome in the Chinese Year of the Rabbit. No words are needed for Where Shall I Be and Cry Heart; the others were attached last time or the week before. Please do print them out yourselves if you possibly can.
