On Thursday, I went to choir with Granny as I always do. This session was extra special as it was ‘Sing for your heart’ instead of regular choir. So it wasn’t just the Suitcase Singers but it was also people from the public who wanted to just sing for their hearts. At the end we did a sound bath where me and Granny and other pairs stood back to back surrounded by a circle of basses, altos and sopranos. First the basses sang a hollowing note then the altos joined in with perfect harmony and finally the sopranos sang an angelic high note as a cherry on top. As they got closer and closer towards us in the middle, the sound got fuller and fuller. Everything in my mind was still and empty and at that point it was almost like white noise in the most beautiful way. I recommend.

We went to Truro to mooch about the shops and swerve around the cobbles. We also had our delicious Cornish pasties and no pesky seagulls stole them.

Before our delicious feast this evening,  we went to see my great Grandmama and Grandadad’s bench which was dedicated to them. It was a simple yet beautiful sight to see and lovely to see how much beloved they were by our family.

Granny and Grandad took us, as well as my Uncle and Auntie, to Home Ground in Redruth where we had pizzas, pasta and many servings of Tiramisu.

Walking home after dinner, three ‘kids’ and one LiveWire. Three of us went home by car!

See you guys soon, can’t wait to be back!

      I love it when T comes to choir. She’s been coming since she was 6 years old and is always welcomed by the gang and by our leader. 🙂

    The Sound Bath sounds soul cleansing!

    Loved this line: We went to Truro to mooch about the shops and swerve around the cobbles. You have a nice way with words.

      The Sound Bath is very special. Everyone who gets a turn in the middle to experience it feels moved. I’ll make sure T gets to see your comment. I love her turns of phrase too. 🙂
