I did my first barbershop performance today. The choir - or some of us - were performing at the local MIND fund-raiser, which as it happens is only a 30-minute walk from here. Not that I did walk there, as it is blazingly hot today. I drove, and Bun and Beast came to listen, and left after our first performance because Beast was due to play WoW at three.

Well, it went off quite nicely. If I'd known in advance how many of the songs I would not be performance-ready for, I probably wouldn't have signed up, but I managed. And it was fun, even singing in the open air. Also, I bought a potato masher and acquired several leaflets about composting.

And then I came home and ate one of my mint-rose-blueberry ice lollies, and it was *excellent*. It didn't exactly taste of any of those things, but it was indefinably good. Om nom.

I shall now deflate and loaf in front of 'Say Yes To The Dress'. Pitiful, really.

Yay for a fun performance, and for not letting the perfect be the enemy of the good.

I'm glad you had fun performing! And even if it wasn't perfect, I'm sure everyone still enjoyed it.

YAY for delish lollies!

Sounds like you had an excellent time.

Singing outside must be a very different experience to singing indoors, I can imagine. It sounds like you'd a great day.
