Sorry that it’s happening and all, but glad they’ve broken out the good drugs for you.

When Birmingham used to do ArtsFest annually I remember one year seeing a full Bassoon Orchestra in the old Gas Hall. It was magnificent!!

Yes, it was a really good year. Lots to love.

There’s an organised display in one of the villages round here on Remembrance Sunday. Which seems lacking in taste in all honesty.

It really was. And everyone really joined in with gusto so there was no self consciousness! 😊

We also did the Twelve Days of Christmas with all the actions! Similarly “He’s got the whole world in his hands”. Jingle Bells, Rudolph, Ding Dong Merrily on High. It was just glorious fun.

Oh all sorts. We Plough the Seeds & Scatter, some WWI songs, all the classic carols like Away in a Manger, We Three Kings, Little Donkey, Silent Night, the behemoths of O little town, Hark the Herald, O Come All Ye Faithful, Wenceslas. Xmas pop hits. Give me oil in my lamp. Loads!

This was kind of the opposite as it’s all adults reverting to childlike enthusiasm. Really quite sweet. And very funny.
