Good luck Lynne, I hope that you succeed.

I think the most important thing is to get together a core group who will support the club on a regular basis. That core group can then help to set the parameters for the club, such as frequency of sessions, what form they should take, etc. It helps to have a few very enthusiastic people involved - I and some friends started a singaround in Hertford not long before I moved to the States and it seems to be taking off, mainly due to the efforts of one particular person who has taken over publicising the event.

We'll look forward to coming over when we're next in the UK!
