Following
the communion service in church, those who came to Phoenix , on Wednesday 19th December,
were treated to a splendid Christmas lunch complete with crackers and paper
hats.
Replete
with soup; turkey and all the trimmings and Christmas pudding,
the odd party
goer fell asleep - but most enjoyed the excellent entertainment
provided by Julie
Ann and some of her pupils –
Harry, who,
amongst other things, opened the show with Merry Christmas Everyone;
and Sue, who changed the mood with Holy Night;
Sue was followed
by Laura
and finally Lucy.
The
highlight for me was Lucy and Laura’s rendition of Feed the World – which moved
me to tears.
The whole
ensemble was greeted with much applause when Margery got up to thank
them all at the end.
I must
mention that the singing was interspersed by excellent recitations from Jane
and Margery herself.
Thank you Margery for all the hard work you have put into organising Phoenix this year.
