Well, here we are. What with Ed having two weeks off and me having one, it’s been a fun filled half term. Don’t come next week though, that will never do. 

A Wim-A-Way warm-up preceded notices, and a warning to anyone who causes trouble after sneaking in without paying. 

Ed’s mum is doing well and if you want to pass on any gossip of the juicy variety see Linda. 

Notices included information about Sundays concert and a sea themed on the 28 June at the pavilion, with lovely school choirs taking part. Keep an eye out for moderately priced tickets, as they are not yet released. 

After story time with Lesley, we tried to resurrect Wild West Hero which had to feature Ed at the piano. Jack punched in the soundtrack in the correct key during the instrumental. It was spectacular. And all of choir knew the intro and came in by themselves. It works if you work it. 

Burning Bridges burst fourth, and so did we. We love to sing All Around My Hat and there were stories to be told afterwards too. 

Ed shouted PUNCH LINE! At the concert on Sunday, The Bond Medley follows a secret joke. Come along and be ready to laugh out loud. It’s Linda’s. This one. Is concert ready. 

Love Grows Where My Rosemary Goes has that funny timing, so do make sure you get your SHEs right after that beat. No not that beat. The other one. Just be careful not to hold anything too long that you shouldn’t and come IN early instead. 

To Know You Is To Love You was sung just a little behind the beat. Shunt it up a bit and you will be fine. 

Before the ice cream van tinkles it’s way into the concert on Sunday Ed will say it’s our last song. Just smile and nod and eat your mivvi. It’s a secret. There’s always an encore demanded from our lovely audience. 

When You Tell Me That You Love Me will be followed by The Impossible Dream, When all the ice creams have melted and there’s not a dry eye in the square. Maybe. Have I told you that I love you, lately? 

Around 1pm, perhaps join in with Ed singing Finish Line doing a little flash mob. The song for the jubilee is Sweet Caroline. So we sang that. Lots of enthusiasm! 

Have a lovely, lovely half term and enjoy the concert if you are going along. Keep singing xxx
