Minus Shanty-Pete and Julian (you were missed) we thought we'd have a quick practice on the Quay. It was bound to be quiet. It was. For a while.
To be honest, we did gather a modest crowd - certainly more than I expected on a chilly evening as the sun went down. Applause was heard at one point - always a bonus.
Pleased with our work, we retired to the Red Lion - only to find half the rowing club and a couple of enthusiastic Welsh women quite keen to hear more music and singing. So we obliged - with a guest appearance by Robin and his quiver of boxes to keep up morale.
All in all a great night and more than £50 added to the bucket.
