We were pleased to welcome Dave Chapman (lead) on to the risers to sing with us at the BABS National Convention in Cheltenham.   Nice to have you with us Dave – hopefully you will soon be singing at all our shows.  Unfortunately, Neil Hamper was unwell and had to drop out of the Convention line-up.   We wish him well.

 

Sid Carter is in the process of learning volumes of music again with a view to a move back to baritone.   Brave man, Sid, and we wish you well in your efforts.
