9 May 2024

Good evening, boombed Ed from a working microphone! It was time to talk dates - 

25 May - Fayre in the square 11.30am
A 20 minute set followed by some Ed for 20 minutes 

29 May - rehearsal for flash mob - possibly Wyke smugglers with the ukulele guys. 7pm

22 June - Flash mob. Three songs -  One day; uptown girl, run.  Time tbc

7 July - swing time - Dorchester 1.15pm 

13 July - headline - osminton village thingy. 3.30 to 4pm 

August is for sunbathing … 

With Ed at the piano we dived into SOMEONE LIKE YOU and it’s definitely a tough one for choir. Ed sang the harmonies for the chorus, and we sang that again. And then without the piano. Eeek. 

We flicked to RUN next, starting at chorus, the juicy harmonies belting out! We ran through the whole song then, no pun intended. Lovely lovely lovely.  

Loud and livey RIGHT BY YOUR SIDE filled the church hall. Don’t forget the delay. Half of us must sing DO and half must sing YEAH. We really looked closely at the top of column two, and I think that as really stating to pay off. 

Gently we sang HALLELUJAH and those smart among us have already crossed out all of the H from the titular word. Banish all gaps, and unlearn what’s been learned before. 

I love ONE DAY LIKE THIS and sang my little face off. Ok said Ed, we need a balance. Choose one of the three parts for the power ending. 

Boom, bang we launched into the bad grammar of WALKING ON SUNSHINE WHOOOOO. That’s not the full title that’s us making a joyful sound at the beginning. 

Finally SECRET LOVE, we stood to perform, then floated off into the night, singing songs and we drifted into our cars and up the road. 

Well done, yay! Love you loads xxx
