JudeL: I agree with your sentiments.
How did your birthday party go at the Song & Ale at Whittlebury (which, incidentally, is another singing only event)? Pity I couldn't make it this year.

PS Tommorrow night I shall be attending a fortnightly mixed session, trying to join in a few tunes, as I gradually improve on my concertina. However, I know that at some point I will be asked to sing but I also know that no instramentalist will attempt to join in, as the others attending are all sensitive souls!
