Good work. Didn,t know ciggies ruined your voice. Nice to here from the people who can sing a bit. condolences to those like me - hopeless. The gents public toilets at a certain place was isolated and had beautiful accoustics. When I was a PC on nights used to have a sing in there, out of the cold and rain. No-one ever caught me and it didn,t sound too bad. How,s that for useless knowledge. xxx Marie, re below. nice to hear of music being in a family. XXX Happy days |

I love to sing! my dad used to sing in the local club filling in between the artists that were on, so I grew up listening and learning all the oldies 50s 60s 70s I still love to sing them now on my karaoke and in the pubs and in the bath! I also like to play the keyboards from time to time aswell. All my daughters are quite good singers too! must be a family thing as my grandma played the piano and a lot of my ancestors sang in the music halls etc. Marie: ) |

We always sang in our house (no television!) and I continue the tradition! Especially early in the morning when I walk in the park and there is nobody to hear me. I am very disappointed in you Harry, always thought you would be a singing kind of guy:-) lol BC |

No Harry, I can't sing a note but love singing! My children actually beg me to stop! It is now used as a punishment if they won't do as they're told 'I'll sing - I will' lol Kaz :o) |

When I was young and belonged to the local operatic society I used burst into 'O Mio Bambino Caro' (Oh my Beloved Father) to my Dad when he was on the point of giving me a good wigging for some misdemeanour or other. Melted his heart instantly! If I reprise it nowadays the family say 'Didn't know you'd got another cat Mum' I now only sing in my head Harry, well except when I'm on my tod sloane in the kitchen cooking the Christmas lunch Cherry! |

I was fortunate to be blessed with perfect pitch and the ability to sight read music. I have sung with a variety of choirs and madrigal groups over the years, but sadly my voice is not of solo quality. Liz |
