Is there any thought on a SING-A-Round anywhere? If not can I help run one?

There's a singaround on the Saturday lunchtime. I'm waiting for Jenny McNaught to confirm it's at the Blue Anchor. There are sessions, at which singers are welcome on the Sunday. Otherwise, the whole festival period is July 2-18, so there is lots of scope for more singarounds after the weekend. It needs to be in the St Albans District.
