Our impromptu version of ‘Kiss’ by Prince, at our April practise session. We’ll do a few more of his songs at our regular get-together at the Hare & Hounds on 8th May (see events top right).

Know when to stop, especially if there’s someone else in earshot.

My first ukulele belonged to my grandfather, and still bore the scars from being thrown in the fire by his exasperated wife!

Singing “Calm after the storm” by The Common Linnets, in the Courtyard Cafe. Good practise – two songs in two hours!
