Good afternoon Dear reader.
I has been a quiet few days in St Hilaire. I has also been a few days since I wrote anything in this blog, so it's time to remedy the situation - or at least to have another ramble on about something. After all you are here on "Ian's Ramblings!"
I have just written on paper 7 things to whittle on about. I couldn't believe it. Maybe there's something in writing a plan instead of just spewing forth words as the come out of me. There's some jazz on in the background and things are OK.
Well, hat is new. I'm still on sick leave. The foot is getting better and I'm just biding my time until it gets 100% better. I just hope the firm I was working for will take me back. Technically they're not allowed to fire me BUT, they are not obliged to continue the the mission. Which would be a bugger. I'm not saying I'm the best assembler they've ever had, but I was getting into it and would have been able to be useful! I hope they'll keep me on anyway. More news about that later I suppose.
This is part of the upcoming concert with A Clair Voix (my Wednesday night choir). We're singing in a church and for the first time since the choir was created I decided it was time to sing some Christmas music! Apparently the choir is secular and thinks church music is only for church choirs! I always thought choirs were about singing music....
Anyway, for this concert I thought bugger, we're going to have some Christmas music, and the illustration on the left is the layout for the sheet you give to the audience for "audience participation!" They all know these songs and it should be fun.
Another thing I'm bringing in for the first time is carolling. We were even in the regional paper. The headline is, "A Clair Voix will sing outside in December."
I couldn't believe it when the journalist phoned me up... She wanted to know why were we giving concerts in the middle of nowhere. I put her straight of course explaining that it was nothing more than begging with a bit more style. The main idea being to get money for charity.
It seems to be an idea completely foreign to people around here - singing carols outside of church not charity. We have been fortunate to meet some lovely people here who are wonderful examples of Christian charity. And that photo has reminded me that the beard suits me better!
