Impromptu appearances during shopping hours will be followed by a live concert at 8.00pm on Sunday July 6. http://igg.me/at/stpeterssingers We also hope to raise sufficient funds to record this so that it can become more widely available, and are appealing to as many people as possible to participate in the project by giving whatever they would like, in return for a reward or perk. It's quite a good way of pre-ordering the CD !

At four o’clock they all greeted each other; They spoke ill of each other at six: “How d’you do?” “Very well, thank you.” “Have you heard?” “Pray, do tell me.” “Tcha tcha tcha tcha tcha ra tcha ra tcha...” “How funny, how amusing, how odd! Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!” “How well you look!” “How pretty your dress!” “Thank you.” “Thank you.” “Good-bye.” “Good-bye.” “Isn’t she a gossip!” “Isn...    less
