Grandma's 91st birthday

To Oscars at Croydon Park hotel for as much food as you want for £19.99 and wine or soft drink included. Delicious sea food , roast beef, chocolate cake. Louise, Tom and Bruce looking very smart in purple shirt and suit and with large bouquet enjoyed it. Discussion with Grandma about going away with CVAB to a hotel which has special facilities for the blind but she didn't want to know basically because she doesn't know many people. Listened to the Prom and commented on website. Why was the Philharmonia Chorus for the second year running not asked to sing in the Berlioz te Deum? We sang in this at the Proms in 2000 with Colin Davis. It didn;t come over well on the radio - no sense of a big choir, boys (Trinity and St Paul's) only heard twice, organ pedals too loud at one point, lack of controlled legato line especially from some raucous basses. Ben Foskett piece not good - much preferred Goldie's! Griff Rhys Jones delightful programme on TV about rivers.
