Thanks for the compliments Kris I felt the same talking with you so I'm sorry we didn't talk more but as George Wilson will testify when I get talking nothing stops me!!! We got on stage in the Youth Concert through the 'back door'! We were taking part in the Harmony Song Workshop which for the first time was more than just an hour tucked away from everyone. We met each day under the 'baton' of Rachel Unthank and she was asked if her workshop group would like to sing during the 'Youth Concert'! She said 'yes' and so that was that! We had great fun meeting at 11am each day of the festival - 1 and 1/2 hours singing in harmony and then off to the theatres/coffee lounge.
Richard and I had a great time at the festival, meeting 'catters and listening to superb singers/musicians - most of whom are mentioned above. We look forward to meeting up with you all again and also those yet unmet - beware!!! :-)
Love and peace to you all (especially Amoret with whom I share a common bond - we have both attended the same school of tact and diplomacy! :-) )
