Song Lists for Fernhurst Furnace Day 2018

Update 13th September 2018: We will meet at 10.30am onwards as below, but most of our singing may now be in the quiet period at lunchtime (12.45-1.30pm) which will give us a better chance of being heard. Wear something comfortable – blue, cream, green and brown, with a cap or straw hat perhaps – but no blue jeans please!

Saturday 15th September 2018

We will sing as wandering minstrels intermittently from about 11.00am till 12.30pm, then a break for lunch, with more singing from 1.30pm till 3.00pm. Meet just after the entrance on the left at 10.30am.
