Wow! What a revelation this singout turned out to be. Being invited to sing at the Scholars’ Dinner at this very smart and traditional school near Witney, we arrived to provide “background accompaniment entertainment” while the guests were arriving for dinner. They were of all ages; from about 12 years old upwards. The head teacher’s idea was that we would sing whilst the guests mingled and talked with each other. Our opening song was sung to about 80 people standing stock still with glasses of drink in their hands and you could hear a pin drop! John C found it necessary to explain to them what our function was and from then on we sang to a background of raised voices. We enjoyed It and we think they did too. After our set was completed we were invited by the school to join the guests for a three course dinner. Very civilised and hugely enjoyable. The school and staff made us very welcome and I’m sure we would not say no to a request for a return visit.
