Travelling to Peterborough

Well here we are, on the coach again. After another wonderful breakfast we have set off for Peterborough. We will rehearse this morning then spend the middle of the day doing our own thing. After that we will go back to the Cathedral and rehearse for Evensong. The generous people of the Cathedral are putting on drinks with the Dean and Chapter afterwards for our whole touring group.

Just a few more photos to let you know what a good time we are all having...

    Great photos. What are you singing at Peterborough? Hot in Adelaide ... dreadful floods in North Queensland but the rain has stopped at last.

The Big One, St Paul’s

  Dear Reader Today was the Big Event of tour. St Paul’s Cathedral, London. If you are observant, you will notice my absence from the photo above, along with several of my colleagues. Sadly, this happened.  After nearly four years and six vaccinations I finally succumbed to the dreaded Covid. At the worst possible time. My multiple vax status has meant I only feel a bit rotten, like a cold, but I do feel sad to have missed the day. And to miss Windsor tomorrow. I was grateful for the considered medical advice provided by Dr Ritesh, father of one of the trebles, who also updated my supply of paracetamol and ibuprofen.  So I am relying on others for the report about this special day.  The good bits started with four of the young Lay Clerks heading to St Paul’s for singing lessons with my friend Patrick Craig, who is an Alto Lay Vicar at St Paul. In have yet to hear from Nicholas, Marco, Charlie or James, but Patrick was very complimentary about their singing. This is w...

Chatsworth House in pictures

  Dear Reader We have just spent a couple of hours at Chatsworth House. I could have spent days exploring the house and the gardens.  Their display was set up as an Advent Calendar, with a lot of trees.

Coffee, Cath's, Guildford, Jamie's, Cocktails and "Tidying Up"

Perhaps I will start with the end and end with the beginning... The Young Ones have just left Room 112 (my room) where they very kindly offered to help Alice and me finish off the duty free vodka and gin we bought in KL some 9 days ago. Slack work, Team. There are remnants, so the Young Ones are cordially invited back to whatever room I am allocated in Chichester tomorrow to continue their assistance in Tidying Up the duty free. What was said in Tidy Up remains in Tidy Up, and you, Dear Reader, should be grateful for this. As well as those whose reputations might be sullied by Tidy Up. Continuing our journey back in time, I will take you, Dear Reader, back to TGIF Guildford*. It stands for Thank God Its Friday. Except on their wall it says TGI FRiDAYS, with the plural marker. (Note to self: Turn off inner Grammar Pedant af...
