Didn't we have a loverly time, the day we went to... Portsmouth!

To misquote the bards of Fiddler's Dram, didn't we have a loverly time, the day we went to... Portsmouth!  A Grand Day was had by all the blokes, so much so that we have even made a short video to commemorate the day for your delight and edification of what goes on during these sort of days - all wholesome fun and much singing, in case you don't to see for yourself, but it would be nice if you do have a watch, it's not that long and very tuneful!

As has been said before in many emails, thanks to all who made it possible and all the blokes who made it such brilliant fun.

Portsmouth Ho! We're bound for South, South England

We hereby give fair warning that our multi-award winning blokes will be invading the world famous docklands of Portsmouth this coming Saturday, singing near the water, on the water, and possibly under the water.

Our multi-hatted singing machine will wend its way from South South Gloucestershire & North North Wiltshire and is scheduled to pop into the following locations throughout the day

HMS Alliance, Royal Navy Submarine Museum, Gosport
Waterbus to Portsmouth
HMS Warrior & HMS Victory, National Museum for the Royal Navy
Only "The" Mary Rose
Curry at TJ Mahal, Southsea

Then for some "Afters" at the Barley Mow,
39 Castle Road Southsea PO5 3DE where we will be joined by some singing friends

Please warn anyone you know in the vicinity. 

Shed shaped and Bristol Fashion?

Don't be misled by the banner in this photo encouraging you to "Eat Britain", we are not about to do that (!) but we are about to go and visit the SS Great Britain for a Grand Day Out round the world famous docks of the great city of Bristol.

One of our number loiters around this world famous landmark of our industrial heritage on the grounds that he works there and after a bit of pubtalk an idea came together that it might be a wizard wheeze to go visit, learn a bit, soak up a bit of our history, and sing in some unusual places.

So this very Saturday 9th April we venture out of our land-locked sheds towards the maritime capital of the South West that is Bristol, more specifically the dockside area and the SS Great Britain itself.

We have a very rough schedule as follows:

1. From 12:00 - Assemble at the SS Great Britain Cafe
2. At precisely 13:00 - Go into the SS Great Britain for a guided tour and singing in various places
3. Roundabout 15:00 - Exit and meet up with other miscreants at the Nova Scotia and see what happens from there

You can either join in the experience or warn others to avoid the area - we hope it is the former.
