The choir is now back in Texas - it was a highly successful tour, every concert packed to overflowing. Thanks to everyone involved in making this visit the huge success it was - my special thanks to Captain Sensible, Lovely Rita, Frank from Radio QFM, et al. Hopefully they will be back next year - as young people they were a credit to their Country, State and University. The next visit is by another USA choir this coming July - this one is THIRTY strong!! More to come

Heh Glen - it was a pleasure to have the company an expert from "the valleys" there with us [I know you come from Bow!]. I think next year you should organise a visit from your local Male Voice Choir
