After Friday nights Jazz concert we decided to tone things down a bit and head out to the local Steventon Christmas Chorale Concert. Steventon is a small village with 2 pubs, church, bakery, 2 sandwich shops, co-op, town hall, soccer pitch called the Green. This is where we live. One hour bus from Oxford, 15 minute bus to RAL. I got the better commute.
The town hall has many activities at it. One is the Christmas performance from the chorale. The chorale is made up of about 30 residents and performs at many functions.
I arrived home from work and Kirk was home so off to the concert. I had my mink on but just jeans and a sweater. We walked into the hall and it was beautifly decorated with lights and All the Christmas trimmings. Everyone was really dressed up. Ok mink was not coming off. Everyone sat at tables angled around the center, there was wine and Oj to drink. The songs went on for about an hour we joined in on some, and then the choir got up and served us mince pies and wine. We got to talk to the people at our table and had quite an enjoyable evening. Then the choir went back up on stage and finished the performance.
We walked back across the green to get home and all in all was a nice time, no ear plugs needed.
