All of the villages we've visited have been lovely but Tealby was so adorable! It was like something you'd see on a painting or chocolate box. So pretty. As you can see, the village hall was as pretty as the rest of the village. The audience were great too - apart from two members who tried to storm the stage at the end of the first set. Two big, fat, hairy spiders!!! Eeek! Someone in the first row kindly ushered them into the ladies loo so that I was able to continue singing. Although that meant I had to cross my legs for the rest of the eveninbg. :-)
After lunch at one of the oldest pubs in the country, we headed for Mareham Le Fen. We were a little worried when we heard that our show clashed with the golf club's awards dinner - obviously a big problem in a small village - but our fears were unfounded as there was yet another full house. We had a wonderful evening and it was made even more special when my pianist David discovered that he and the promoter Roz were "birthday twins" by one week and were born in exactly the same area in Essex. All that way to find someone who grew up around the corner from you!
So another rural tour over and another wonderful store of memories of visiting some of the most beautiful parts of the country. Can't wait for next March - when I'll be doing it all again! :-)
