We sang as a foursome "Many a Mickle" last weekend, at the Fete de la Morue at Binic. Pete and I have been singing for 30 years+, but Carol and Colin have only been singing with us for a year. Before the concert, we went for a snack in an establishment where there were sea-songs printed on the placemats. We offered (more in hope than expectation) to 'sing for our supper', but were taken up on it. A four-part rendition of 'Yeller Girls' earned us free drinks and stopped the passers-by. More to the point, Colin remarked that he was completely gobsmacked, and would never have dreamed a year ago that he could have done that!!
