Dahliagirl, that's great! Who says you're rubbish? Some people can sing better than others but we can all sing 🎶🎶! I found an article about the benefits of singing, health-wise and from a social point of view. The people who loved my little choir best of all were an 83yr old and a fabulous lady who has struggled with her weight all her life, suffered from serious depression issues and found it hard to stay in tune and in time with the music, but she got so much out of singing together for 90 mins a week. And I made 2 wonderful new friends. Another lady gave me an unexpected Christmas present last year and a lovely card saying how much she enjoyed the songs and getting her confidence back enough to stand up and sing a solo again.
If I had stood up to the newbie, I would have caused a big row as she was not for reasoning with. I think it's going to come alright in the end - I'll keep you posted!
