Singing for Pleasure

Singing for Pleasure

2012 began with the sad and sudden death in December of our organ player, Alan . He will be sorely missed by the group, not least for his ability to accompany us on many varied instruments, but also his immense musical knowledge, his lively wit and endearing personality. We will continue to sing in his memory.

We meet on alternate Thursdays at the Howard Garden Social Centre, Norton Way South 7.30pm - 9.30pm.

A contribution of £2 is required. No refreshments are provided, please bring your own.

Free parking available at the Centre.

Meetings this month:

Thursday 9 February

We regret we are unable to accept new members at this present time.

Summer Celebration

Although we had planned to hold our "Summer Celebration" in Jenny Barwick's garden, the weather did not co-operate and we had to make a hasty retreat into the house. This did not 'dampen our spirits', however, and a good time was had by all. Thank you Jenny.
