It’s the night before Christmas

Yesterday we had an unexpected but very welcome invitation from Marjory and Forrest, who had spare tickets for a Christmas concert at the GRCH. So we happily went along and were treated to an excellent evening of festive songs. As well as an orchestra, choir and dancers, there were two excellent principal singers; Laura Tebbutt and Tim Howar. Tim Howar is the current (although not original) lead singer of Mike and the Mechanics and both singers have had many lead roles in London’s West End. Their voices were amazing. Soon we were all singing along, it was a great evening.
And here we are on Christmas Eve. This afternoon we went to see It’s a Wonderful Life at the Grosvenor Cinema in Ashton Lane, and as ever it was truly lovely. Back at home we ate more roasted chestnuts and chatted while watching Christmas number ones on an old edition of Top of the Pops.
