Welcome to this week’s Dreamers Newsletter. I’m afraid I have to start with some sad news. Pat Farmer who many of us remember as a very regular supporter of Dreamers for many years and in many venues (along with her husband Mike who died in 2003), has died at the age of 91. “Queen Pat” managed to get along and join in the choruses even when she had to get a taxi after giving up her own licence. The funeral is at St John the...

A cracking evening at Dreamers last Sunday with a packed room to hear Baldricks Plan (in their new form) and Out of the Wood. Many thanks to them, to Ruth for organising a very busy evening with two guests and the usual number of floor singers, not to mention a lively audience and brining it all to a close around the usual time. Truly an evening to remember and best wishes to Baldricks Plan and to Out of the Wood for the future. It...

Welcome to the first Dreamers Newsletter of 2025 after a gap because of holidays and ill health. I hope everyone has had a good break. It was good to be back at the Club on Sunday night and to see a good turn-out of regulars who braved the atrocious weather – hope everyone got home safely. It also gave us an opportunity to send good wishes to John who has been having a New Year visit to Treliske. Let’s hope he’ll be home soon and...

Welcome to the last Dreamers Newsletter of 2024 and a very Happy Christmas and New Year to all. Following last Sunday’s excellent meal and the selection of sketches, great singing and plenty of humour (many thanks to Jonathan and Jill for all the effort of organising it all), I’m sure everyone is looking forward to the last Dreamers evening of the year on Sunday with the opportunity to join in well-loved seasonal songs. No Club on...

We had a good evening again at the Club on Sunday – fortunately the worst of Storm Darragh had moved on so a good number of regulars were able to make it and we were spared the “applause” from the skylight. Some unfortunately not well so best wishes to them and hope to see you back soon. It was also good to see the list of guests who Jonathan has managed to book for next year for us to look forward to.  On now to Christmas with...

Back to the Dreamers Newsletter after a week’s holiday One always expects a great evening with Rum and Shrub Shantymen and last Sunday’s visit certainly did not disappoint with lots of great singing – by audience as well as guests – some familiar material and some less so and, of course, plenty of good humour all round. Now we are in December, we can start planning for Christmas. This coming Sunday, 8th December, is a singers...
