Thank you to all for your words and prayers whilst I've been poorly. I'm pleased to be able to say I'm very much on the mend now and hoping to be fully fit again very soon. 10 March was our last practice together - it would be great for us all to return to the gallery before 12 months are up! Here's hoping for a happier and more settled 2021. I wish you, and those dear to you, the very best Christmas possible. The first Christmas was, of course, a very simple one indeed...... With much love to you all, Tony x |

Father Deo has agreed that we might have 10-12 singers, social distanced and in line with current coronavirus guidance, in the gallery to sing quietly at Christmas Midnight Mass. This may or may not prove viable. It leaves me with difficult decisions to make, so please, please don't feel offended if I do not contact you. It's all a bit of a logistical nightmare! |
