Hullavington Ramblers Walk.
A short (3.75 miles) afternoon walk around Castle
Combe. Meet at the NT car park at the top of
the combe for a 2:pm start. All are welcome. Just turn up.
A group of us have been cycling through the combe
recently and the autumnal colours really do
something for the place. I know it looks good in
all seasons, but somehow the autumn scores highest
for me. |

(updated 28th Sept)
Remember only a few days back
when Chris Samuels
of Naked Voices was taking soundings to see if
there was sufficient interest to start up a
regular voice workshop? Well there has been a
good response and there will be a voice workshop in
Hullavington Village Hall every Friday
afternoon. In addition to polishing up and improving
your voice, Chris also assures me that anyone
can be taught to sing. And If you can't sing
it's because you have never been taught
to. So, if like me, you just mouth the words on
occasions when communal singing cannot be
avoided because your voice sounds even less
tuneful than the drone pipe on a set of
bagpipes, then the voice workshop could
be the answer for us silent singers.
