All Home – Happy Christmas!

First of all great to hear that everyone arrived back home. At Manchester Marianne had advised me that she thought the group was flying back to Sydney direct from Dubai. Apparently that didn’t happen, “clever” how Emirates disguise the organisation of their flights……..

Having myself experienced the transit in Bangkok when the body time clock is completely out, I know that this would have been a tricky moment right near the end of the tour and it will  probably effect  people’s  jet lag recovery time back in Oz. Still the important thing is everyone is home safely.

I trust everyone will enjoy reliving the tour with their families and friends, and am still receiving phone calls and messages from people here in Notts who were completely blown away by the quality of our music making at the two concerts at Bingham and Southwell respectively

Please have a very safe Christmas and well-earned holiday break.

Love to all,

James A.

6 days to go and counting!

Excitement is building up as we leave in less than a week and Ben Ho has done a terrific job in setting up this website. A few things at this stage:

Final tour meeting and issue of tour uniform cabin bags is now at 5.00p.m. on Monday 1 December. All the tour party must be there. We should be finished by 6.00 p.m.

Please check arrangements for final rehearsals and performances for the carol services (years10 &11) and Celebration (all senior choir) before we leave!!

Finally an important message from Rob Latimer.
A little reminder (for the girls!) that shampoo is not provided at the Hotel Etap when we’re in Paris. (Boys are encouraged to provide their own shampoo too!!)

Happy packing!
