1-3 July 2022 / Broneirion Singing Circle Weekend
It was wonderful to meet at last in Broneirion for our singing weekend. What a great time we had, even if the weather fluctuated from heatwave to shivering rain. The singing sessions were shared between Marion Prior and our own members. As well as singing all sorts of songs, Marion slotted in all the songs from the front half of ‘Canu Canu’ and our members (Janet, Shirley, Mel, Donna, Annette & Catherine) slotted in the songs from the second half of the book. I can’t say that all were perfect – we certainly need to re-visit some to gain confidence – and we failed to sing the 4 Christmas songs, but we gave ‘Canu Canu’ a good airing! During Annette’s slot we sang “Like the Eagle” in memory of Sylvia Scarf. Saturday evening took the form of a ‘Jubilee’ Quiz led by Annette, which was great fun, with everyone dressed appropriately in red, white, and blue.
Currently, there are no staff at Broneirion, so we needed to do our own catering. Janette did a superb job in the kitchen, and we all were extremely well fed, including those with special diets. To assist, we ran a patrol system rota for covering the jobs required. An unexpected outcome of this way of working, was the enjoyment of talking to folk who we perhaps didn’t previously know that well.
