Wolfsburg, Germany

Well, here we are in Wolfsburg just about to leave the hotel for a spot of lunch. We'll be having a meeting over food too - to discuss programmes, plans for our 50th anniversary in 2018 and lots of other exciting things! It's hard to believe that nearly 50 years ago, the group was in its infancy, embarking on the first years of its existence! Amazing....Anyway, we're still on a huge high after an action-packed weekend in Holland. Our concert on Saturday night in Den Haag at the wonderful Dr. Anton Philipszaal was huge amounts of fun, with a very lively audience. We also had the huge privilege of singing the morning broadcast at the Concertgebouw on Sunday morning. We were blessed with a packed house and the pure joy of singing in one of the world's great concert halls. Personally, the weekend was made even more special as Gemma was able to pop along to both concerts and it was really special to have her there. It was also great fun to spend a little time with some of Gemma's friends in Den Haag and also Amsterdam. The weather was really delightful too, so hopefully spring is on its way!Right, I better get myself ready to leave for this lunch meeting. 2018 here we come!!
