The karatoke worked well, even if what Mrs Duck did to the carrot made Micca wince.
As a reluctant singer either way works, so long as people have the curtesy to realise that some of us won't be very good/have only a limited number of songs/may want to miss out one round but join in the next. It really bugs me if I opt out once and am then ignored for the rest of the evening.
Or should I just get put in the same catagory as melodeon players and stick to telling story .....
