“What sad times we are in, and it looks like continuing well into the future. Like all social groups, our rehearsals have been suspended but still we keep in touch. Whilst recognizing the seriousness of the corona virus pandemic, and not wishing to add to anyone’s distress it has caused, there is a humerous side to it which we often need to lift ones spirits.

That said, I would like to inform you of the following:-

·All of our senior chorus members are staying at home and have wrapped themselves in cotton wool in order to apply SELF-INSULATION.

·The activities of our numerous quartets have been completely FOUR-STALLED.

·We only perform with each other over the telephone or web, thereby practicing SOCIAL DISTANT-SING.

·Our MD can no longer whinge about the Baritones, and he now CONDUCTS himself most harmoniously.
 
Let’s hope that all the choruses in Australia can get together again in the not too distant future.”
