Sunday was sunny for DFS to sing on the beach. And we did very well Ed thanked us. The audience said it sounded good. 

There were three new songs printed out for us, and a concert to look forward at half term. Ed ran through a few dates at times but I didn’t keep up today. Head full of clouds. Isn’t that a song. 

We warmed up … but we didn’t sing happy birthday to me, and then we listened to Pie Jesu the first of our brand new songs. Ed went over the Latin pronunciations. We will be singing it in Sarah Brightman minus 6. Phew. Ed sat at the piano. Sheet music is available. Dig out your jam and Jerusalem voices and proper diction. 

Next I’m into Something Good blasted from the mini speaker. Then we had a run through and lots of people thought they knew it. I mean, my dad used to sing it. There are a few twiddly bits so we had another listen to some specific bits. Play this on Alexa when you get home! Time for another DFS run through. 

Everly Brothers next ‘Til I Kissed Her yipped I ‘know’ this one too. After a listen through Ed popped on the backing track and filed his nails! An auto harmony filled the room. 

Then Happy Birthday filled the room and it was lovely and there were no bun notes, where there Peter? 

We sang So Happy Together, The Wellerman and Song of the Sea just for fun. 

Superb singing DFS keep singing. And maybe dancing round the kitchen xxx
