It's been a quiet start to 2020..... ..... marred only by illness, both seasonal and unexpected. The 'cough' that has been doing the rounds in south London and beyond has been particularly virulent this year, and has struck many of us down. 'Man flu? Bit more than that!! As we start to come out of the post-Christmas doldrums we look forward to Holy Week and the great feast of Easter. We shall start rehearsing the music on the first Tuesday of February, and I anticipate having the draft music lists ready by the middle of the month. |
