Hi All


It was a shame that last week we had to cancel the outside session due to the bad weather.  We will try again this week and keep our fingers and everything else crossed that we can go ahead. Thank You Natalie for letting us use your garden again.

Rather than everyone having to write to me to let me know if you are attending or not below is everyone who has put their name down for at least one of the sessions,  so unless you tell us otherwise we will assume that you will be participating.  Everyone is welcome and we would love to see you all so please let us know if you want to be added to the list.

I think that makes sense??

Hi All

It looks like we may have to carry on with outside rehearsals for the time being due to the restrictions not being lifted and they  still do not seem to have changed the rule of more than six amateur singers rehearsing or performing indoors together which is another obstacle, who would have thought that we could cause so much trouble?
This is all a shame but at least we can get together and hear one another singing, although that was not particularly great last week in the first run through of ‘When the Saints” but the men did  master it out in the end.   

I am sure by now you have all read the previous emails and know what is required to attend an outside rehearsal, if you need to remind yourselves all of the emails are on the members page under ‘Lin’s Email’s’

Because of this we need to know exact numbers and to keep everyone in the right sections we need to work out a seating plan.  To my knowledge the following people have said that they are going to attend.  Apologies if I have added/missed anyone off.

Sops                           
Jane Courtenay

The weather looks a bit unsettled we will let you know by 5.00pm if we decide to cancel so please check your emails if you are in any doubt. We will then revert to zoom.   It might be a good idea to have an umbrella just in case we get a shower, I thought it was going to rain last week when we were singing Africa ☔️.
Thanks to Hilary who has agreed to fill in for Chris as he is in London for a meeting and is not 100% sure he is going to make it back in time.  Hilary has been practising so thanks again Hilary.  Hope you all have a great time and the weather behaves itself.
All the Best.
