Play-itt celebrates in green
Playitt patrons on March 14 were resplendent in green for St Patrick’s Day, and the Irish persuasion was reflected in much of the musical content.
![Winners Terry and Shirl.](https://somerset-4634.kxcdn.com/img/containers/assets/news/432783327_880885657381268_8228348607047500096_n.jpg/39b434f4e9c6df9afef13e7a99b8143f.jpg)
“Wild Irish Rose”, “Whiskey In the Jar”, Mountains of Mourne”, “Danny Boy” and “Athen Rye” were just some of the offerings.
We had a visit from the Woodford Singers who are always a delight, and are currently seeking, and would welcome, new members to bulk out their thinning numbers these days.
The highlight of the evening was a rousing and robust presentation in both verse and song of The Dubliners “McAlpine’s Fusiliers” from Lindsay, really capturing the essence of the gathering… Superb work! Winners of the dress-ups were Jordie, Terry and Shirley.
Playitt 21st March 2024 was a test run of a revised format for streamlining the flow of performers to and from the stage with a pleasing result.
Throwing out a challenge: come up with an Easter related song or costume for Thursday, March 28, Woodford Bowls Club 6.30pm. Free entry.
