I have to apologise for the lack of up dates on this site in the last year. My excuse is that we have been incredibly busy, but I do appreciate that means we should have had more information on here not less!
We now have a Facebook page, which is quicker for me to update from my phone, so do please look at that site for more regular up dates, but this one is on our business cards so it will remain open, and I will endeavour to up date it more regularly, sound like a new year resolution to me.
So what have we been up to..... Well at the end of 2011 we won, best improved quartet in the Ladies association of British Barbershop Singers (LABBS) national competition. As a result we got this lovely trophy, although have to admit it did feel as though we were leaving with the tea service tray from the hotel :0) We came 11th in the national competition which out of almost 30 quartets for our second attempt this was not bad going.
We have sung at Sports dinners, Golf Captain's Christmas Do's, Christmas black tie parties, museum openings, Preston Guild celebrations. We were meant to do a community award night, however our lovely Barri slipped on a grape of all things - you can imagine we haven't let her live that down - and consequently ended up with a trip to A&E and a painful torn hand-string to show for it, so we had to give that one a miss. A rather extreme way of getting out of a booking!
We competed a Chester Music competition and came first in our category so got the cup back, we're pleased about that one, they hadn't engraved our name on the plinth last time, so we'll make sure it's done twice this year.
