@kirstymerryn 😂 We only sing acapella and pack a lot into a set, sometimes I wish we could have a break for tuning up! 😥

[Jack in a Barrel @jackinabarrel]

We're back! Our first performance in almost two years will be at Turvey Christmas Fayre 05/12/21.
We're singing at about 1.15pm🙂
Lots of stalls and other interesting stuff. See you there - wrap up warm!🎄🎶

Singing at sporting events = great for the nation. Singing at singing events = dangerous for the nation.

Whitsun Dance tells of the wives of WWI soldiers who kept Morris Dance alive in their husbands’ absence. After the war, memorials replaced many village maypoles.
At the going down of the sun and in the morning, we will remember them.

@RowanRheingans Mobile phones didn’t exist when I was 11 😂

[Jack in a Barrel @jackinabarrel]

After weekly virtual pub nights since lockdown began, we figured it was about time we sang something.
Putting this together has made things feel a little brighter.

This is 'John O'Dreams' by Bill Caddick.

Stay safe. Keep singing.
