WEEK 47 Join Zoom Meeting https://us02web.zoom.us/j/81691367380?pwd=RUg4SFNPbnRxbUVwQ1gwb1ZKUWZhQT09

HI ALL


So here we are again Week 47 and February has arrived I hope you are all coping with this Lockdown and are managing to keep yourselves fit and healthy and entertained.  To help with the entertainment side we are giving you something to do on Saturday Evening so get out the popcorn 🍿fizzy pop🥤 and settle yourselves down to watch ‘LOST IN PANTOLAND’ a premier of the 2008 Pantomime talked about entertainment of that decade, year, month, week, oh OK just that day then. 

  As I said in the last email I will send out the details later in the week for you to be able to watch it on Youtube and join in with online chat, you will have to be muted whilst the Panto is on but there will be time for a chat at the beginning a short break in the middle and at the end.  I am also intending to invite past members who were in the choir and Panto and involved with the production to see if they would like to join us on zoom. I will send you a copy of the programme so you can TRY and follow the story.

No Birthdays this week so no lovely photographs for you to look at, which is a shame because I have a new device and have been trying to sort it out and made a lovely montage of Chris Allison then realised his birthday is not until next week. Whilst trying to sort out how to do it I now have a photograph of Chris and Zac as my screensaver/wallpaper/background/whatever you call it,  and can’t work out how to change it.😂🎹😂

I have already sent out the details of what we are singing for this week but just in case you missed the email:-

Dear Lin

You have received a message from (laurie@carryonsinging.com) via the contact form at Making Music:

Hi there,

My name is Laurie Denman, and I’ve written to you in the past using the Making Music website Contact Form concerning my online choir platform, Carry On Singing.

I am delighted that many members from choirs across Making Music were able to join in our last 4 Week Online Choir Programme over the Christmas period and I would be extremely grateful if you could please forward this email to the members of your choir once again.

As we continue to get used to the UK’s third National Lockdown, keeping our minds alive and our voices in check is more important than ever, so I’m thrilled to be able to offer another 4 Week Online Choir Programme: our ‘Sing Into Spring Course’! This course will focus on the wonderfully emotive tune ‘Lean On Me’ by Bill Withers which carries an ever-increasing importance and relevance in these unusual times. Our arrangement of ‘Lean On Me’ endeavours to lift our spirits with a slightly faster tempo and fun, creative four-part harmony, and members will, as always, be given the opportunity to record their parts at home, adding their vocal contributions to our Virtual Choir Performance. Our courses also offer a host of exercises and warmups to keep your voice in good health and bespoke SATB Guide Tracks to assist in your learning of our arrangement.

Our Sing Into Spring Course begins on Friday 5th February 2021, with new materials sent through each Friday after that, lasting for a total of 4 weeks. If you’d like to find out more information about our Sing Into Spring Course, then please head over to our website at:

If you’d also like to check out how fantastic our members look and sound in our Virtual Choir Performances, then please click on one of the links below:

Thank you very much for helping to spread the word of Carry On Singing! With your help we can cut through the chaos of Coronavirus, embrace the magic of music, and, of course, put the sing in social distanc-sing.

WEEK 46. Join Zoom Meeting https://us02web.zoom.us/j/81691367380?pwd=RUg4SFNPbnRxbUVwQ1gwb1ZKUWZhQT09 Meeting ID: 816 9136 7380 Passcode: Gold

Hi All

Well here we are and yes it is Week 46, this would probably have been the week-end that we would have been having our Annual Dinner.  So although we cannot all be together  here’s a good  excuse to have a nice meal and maybe a boogie and probably a bottle of wine?

We have one birthday this week it is Beccy Coppen’s on Wednesday 3rd January.  I have known Beccy since she was a little girl at junior school when I took her for cycle training (I am not sure if that is true but I did  take cycle training and Beccy was at the school  when I was teaching) but I did see her when she was taking dance lessons.  We were all very pleased when she joined the choir as she lowered the average of the choir considerably. She had time off when she had her son Oliver but came back and then of course she had Edie during lockdown.  

This is Beccy with Carita (our pianist) when we were in Germany.  Looks like they were having fun.

Proof that she was planning with Louise to hit me with the clacky stick. Look at that evil look in her eye.  Have a great birthday with your lovely family.

I have already sent an email on what we are singing this week but just as a reminder.

If you would like to join the zoom meetings and are unsure of the technology please do not hesitate to contact me and Eric will talk you through  and do a mock up zoom call with you.  The more the merrier.

We have some exciting news for you for next Saturday 5th February 
“Oh no you haven’t!”  “Oh Yes We Have!”.  “Oh No You Haven’t!”.  “Oh Yes We Have!!”  We are going to have another premier on Zoom of one of our past Pantomimes 7.00pm next week.  We will send you all the details you need for the zoom and the link for the YouTube in the coming week.  
We are going to premier “Lost in Panto Land”. It has many of the choir current choir members performing in it with lots of singing and audience participation.

Here is the birthday girl with her husband Dick Whittington (Eunice) in the Pantomime ‘Lost in Pantoland’.  Slightly upset because I married him/her a couple of years before this. 
Hope to see you on zoom tomorrow to try out our new and exciting format.
