Thanks both. Sue last year when I had a singaround running over lunchtime, no one actually turned up, which is why I left gaps. Admittedly there were a lot more people around this year so it may be a more viable proposition. Perhaps if I just left shorter breaks between? Like a beer break and for change over of session leader? It's also been suggested that perhaps I should do some sort of mini-concerts, with feature spots of several songs from some people. Anyway, the Loft is available to use all the time so I shall certainly make more of it next year. It was ahrd to know what to expect this year, basing things on last, but the large increase in numbers means it's a quite different thing now. Tim the accoustics in the flat are absolutely wonderful but we would never have fitted the number of people in there that were in a couple of the singarounds. You're right, the chimney breast is a pain. Not sure what we can do, though I think the way I had the chairs set out in the first place got more people in in front of it than the way it was set out on later occasions. I guess we could try having two smaller singarounds running simultaneously....not sure that's a brilliant idea though for a number of reasons. Any more suggestions? (Polite ones only please!!) Love Lynne
