Gig Feedback
Excellent turnouts for both recent gigs at the retirement village, Carols Singing at Garran, on Saturday night and for Music@Midday on Tuesday. Only a few members needed counselling and stroking following comments from Geoff Grey about our social standing.
Final Practice Session
Final practice went well and I wish to repeat here the recognition members accorded Lucy Bermingham for her substitute MD role over the last four weeks. Thank you, Lucy.
Congratulations also went to Liz Fyfe on reaching the exalted state of grand motherhood not via Karen but her brother Doug and his wife.
