Thanks for last Friday there were some very good moments. Special mention to Renwick and John who were on their own on their respective part. I especially enjoyed working on Justorum animae which is one of those masterful little gems that Byrd often came up with.
This week we are going all Romantic as most of last week’s absentees will be back with us.

We have not yet resolved Christmas so assume that we are at St. Martin’s on 10th December and Newstead on 18th December. Come what may I want to get a programme under way. As yet I have received only one request, please submit any more by Wednesday next week. Dig your Carol Books out for next Friday.
