The Big Lunch in Worcester
Have had a thoroughly delightful day at the Big Lunch today: lovely weather, delicious food and good company. Thanks to your moral support and to your singing & playing today. The collection after Songs of Praise was an amazing £87.20 - and the Church also gave me a cheque for £60.00! I am thrilled and touched by everyone's kindness.
I was impressed at how much all the children joined in with what I had wondered might be old-fashioned songs to them. And a lady in the audience (who enjoyed our music herself!) said how much a young handicapped girl whom she had brought with her enjoyed our playing. Apparently, she (the young girl) was in her element - something that didn't often happen. Warm reagards, Sue.

July
Nostalgic Classic Car Show in Shelsey Walsh
Hi Susa, We just got a big "Thank You " from Shelsley Walsh. They say we had the best response from the Shelsley crowd of all the 3 acts. They liked our "music selection "and our "fun" approach to the Gig .
And so as we sang on Sunday. "Well Goodbye Shelsley Walsh , Goodbye heart
Sweet Shelsley Walsh I'm so in love with you
I thought Shelsley Walsh,we'd never part
So Goodbye Shelsley Walsh,and goodbye heart"
Thanks to Graham for making the Gig such Fun.

We received donations from most of these gigs and were able, after playing the drivers' expenses to give £344.20 to charity.
Many thanks again for the donation of £100 that SUSA made to MNDA before Christmas - much appreciated as is the support that we get from you as a group of people.
