How fun to read of your junior high singing experience … it reminds me of similar moments in my own life, but I’m crunched for time and have no idea where the ‘clippings’ might be at the moment …(though I’m sure they’re here somewhere). I did sing solos, but much preferred singing duets with my sister and with a ‘folk group’ for 15years or so in my 20s and 30s … but eventually gave it up for other interests once some of the members started having children of their own. <BR/>Hugs and blessings,storytellerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14101550406171982090noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1922338030834754301.post-70474726015796929922008-09-18T22:27:00.000+01:002008-09-18T22:27:00.000+01:00I've never sung in public.

Like you, I was always in the choir at school, belting out songs to my heart's content at the back of the chorus. I've never sung solo but I was once one of a trio which sang a harmonising folk song for the school concert - dread to think what it sounded like!Around My Kitchen Tablehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01840917368903178857noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1922338030834754301.post-85216281659108164222008-09-18T12:39:00.000+01:002008-09-18T12:39:00.000+01:00And still IS a beauty....I've never heard the musi...And still IS a beauty....<BR/>I've never heard the music on your blog before....New Lap Top!!<BR/>heheheeG-Manhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14968807697181554781noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1922338030834754301.post-27444629718286913742008-09-18T08:03:00.000+01:002008-09-18T08:03:00.000+01:00What a gorgeous picture!

We both got the giggles and couldn't finish the song and our mothers made us just sit down. Later, I was in a triple trio when I was in high school. I think the music teacher put me there just because she needed a body for the right number to complete the triple trio! Space filler.
