My Domestic line manager deemed that we have a short break away from the toil and strife that is the retirees lot. She refused to countenance the 3 year farewell world tour that is being performed as I speak by Lord Elton of John, So we booked a break , (apprehensively on my part) to the Nidd Hall hotel in the Peoples Republic of N Yorks.
On the last night I went into the reading room (more like a hall) and there were 3 ladies tuning their various instruments and voices. I thought this looks interstring (see what I did there).So we waited around for the concert which turned out to be 2 half hour sets, All I can say it was brilliant. The blonde lady whose name I think is Adele has perfect pitch and a 3 Octave range the other two well see for yourself, here are a some of what our friend in the north would call "Choons "
They sound a lot better live than on YT

Excellent. Liked their Andrews Sisters stuff best.
Hotel looks rather grand - did you venture out to explore the fleshpots of Harrogate centre?

Found a very nice wife swapping club where I swopped my DLM for a pair of Linn speakers, sadly on the left hand speaker the tweeter was gone and it had no woofer on the right so the swop had to be reversed. I still think he got the best of the deal

I've never heard After The Goldrush sung remotely close to pitch perfect before, kind of kills the song for me Otherwise excellent!
