The pub will have changed hands just before the day but we're in touch with the new landlords, who are as keen as we are that everything should go as smoothly as usual.

Full MC timetable:

The day begins as usual with an hour of join-in tunes while people arrive. Singing starts at noon; ballads and the occasional instrumental party piece will be very welcome. There's a break from 6.00 - 7.00 p.m. After the break we'll continue the singaround, and after completing the circuit of the room we'll try to put on anyone who hasn't yet sung.
