Dee Ukes returned to Midlin Day Care today. It seems like no time since we were last there. There were a a number of ‘weel kent’ faces in the audience as well as a few new faces. We got off to an early start and as always Midlin visitors soon got into the swing of things. We had additional people appearing from time to time from the office and from the kitchen! I’m sure they didn’t want to miss out on all the fun. There were a couple of young students from Germany doing work experience. I made it my mission to get one of them, Simon, to join in with the singing and dancing before the afternoon was over. Unfortunately, I didn’t realise until the end that he was in fact from Germany. Despite a few language issues, he was a great sport and joined in with the dancing. He even took our group photo. Thanks Simon! 🙂

- Memory Songs: Rockin’ All Over the World & Rock Around the Clock.
- We’re Not Going To Take It – version 1.5. This song continues to get better every week. Keep practising the ‘tricky’ bits!
- One Way Or Another – We decided the key was too low for this song, so I have transposed it to the key of D. We will try this next week. You can print it from here. One Way or Another v2 in D
- Playground Songs – We played the shorter version and it is much better.
- Country Roads – Sounding good.
- Home Medley – We hadn’t played this for a while and it was lovely!
- When You Walk in the Room – Sounding good.
- New Song – House of Gold by Twenty one Pilots – Our first attempt at this was pretty good. This song has quite a catchy tune. We will try again next week.
- We finished off a busy session with Leaving On A Jet Plane.
Many thanks again to all for coming along and working hard.
Our thoughts are with those who are still feeling under the weather. Hope to see you soon. 🙂
