Southwell Rotary Club

Last night we performed at the Saracen's Head Southwell, for the annual Southwell Rotary Club Christmas Dinner. What a wonderful audience.

We sang around the tables as they had their meal, then after a short break, we did a more formal set, including all the idiocy and silliness that we are well known for. During this set, the Rotarians were "hijacked" by the Lions Santa Claus, who went around the tables collecting for charity, while we provided a festive backing by singing Jingle Bells.

I was especially pleased to see Santa, as it gave me an opportunity to give him my presents list and save a stamp.

We would like to say a big thank you to William for inviting us, and for the wonderful hospitality we were shown.  Also a big thanks to the receptionist at the Saracen's Head who kindly opened a room for us to warm up in.

This was our last performance of 2009.  We are all looking forward to a break over Christmas before we start learning new material for 2010.

Merry Christmas everybody
