And they're off!

It's moving day today. The van is parked outside the house and we're standing in a slightly bemused huddle as we watch our surroundings disappearing into the cavernous maw.

Actually, I think it's been fun. And since we're moving from a four-bedroom house to a six-bedroom house, we really don't have enough furniture!

We're really looking forward to living and working in such a peaceful and beautiful environment. Gillyanne and I have signed up to write books 3-6 in the Singing Express series with co-author Ana Sanderson. Singing Express is designed to introduce healthy, simple singing concepts to 6-11 year olds and their teachers. There are new songs, song vehicles (vocal chants and exercises based around one aspect of the song), backing tracks, video films, cartoons, tips and advice. Book 1 is already out and Book 2 is being filmed this week.

We're also planning some brand new training retreats for the Spring and Summer. So if you'd like to join us in our wonderful house and garden (see the previous blog for a photo), and you are serious about working on your voice and performance skills, keep your eyes peeled for more news, or just join our eZINE mailing list.

Got to stop now, I'm surrounded by people brandishing bubblewrap - I assume it's for the computer...
