Customer Reviews

You need a drink or two first
It's not very easy to sing along with operetta, it's really not.

A few of us tried 'I am the very model of a modern major general' and collapsed laughing soon after we had begun. It's the sort of thing one tries at Christmas and then puts away again.

I'd leave it to the professionals if I was you
