We started with some name calling. Calling out the names on official t shirts to try and match them up to choir members. Then our warm up. 

Then Ed showed off his new clean suggestion box, while waiting for a track to load. Then I daydreamed during some of the notces then woke up to requests for tins of marrofat peas! Raffle prizes to Jigsaw-Jenny please. Not long now until our concerts! Eeep!

Before Christmas we are going to set a date for taking over a karaoke bar. Not the one in Tokyo. Everyone started to shout out karaoke venues. 

We began with So Happy Together  well half of choir did and half had a think about it first! Ed encouraged us to sing over the top. I need a sheep puppet. I really do! We did it much better the second time around. 

Africa will be saved for the new year now. So after talking of doing it in the dark we slipped into The Song of the Sea. Remember there are no such things as high notes. Ed ran through the descant part, right at the top of his range. Then from the top, everyone stood to sing. This is a real crowd pleaser, I'm looking forward to hearing a happy audience talk about this one again. Takes me back to choirs youth! 

Dusty time now, with our lyrics set to Ariel Bold which is really washing powder. Es told us to learn all the words for this one. Beware of reading the page with your face down, anyway. We stood to sing this again, and it was one million times better and we can go home a treat. 

Noting like a good medley, The Sound of Music ... It's really hip and trending right now with the movie being 50 years old just like our Julie. She won't mind me saying :-). And Ed said ooooo when we finished it. Phew. Keep it up he said. 

Finally a Run with words. Now the officiall song for the happenings in Paris. So we gave it our all. I stopped to take in the last two choruses and you DFS are amazing. 

Out of time we squeezed in a Rosé in its new key. Come on. Love you lots xxxx
