27-Mar-09 MIND Active

Third time at this home in Stakeford. We were made to feel very welcome by the Activities Co-Ordinator and the residents who had come to listen to us. Donald was enjoying himself enormously joining in at all the right places and singing along with us. As usual we had two 30-minute spots (we always have a short break for a gargle and re-tune of the guitars) and we sang:

  • 'Back Home To You' (Allan Taylor)
  • 'Passin' Thru' (Randy Scruggs and Johnny Cash)
  • 'Dream On' (jiva)
  • 'Yorkshire Romance' (C. J. Rowe)
  • 'Sonny' (Ron Hynes)

  • 'Love At The Five And Dime' (Nanci Griffith)
  • 'Two Old Friends' (Chris Simpson')
  • 'Different Dreams' (jiva)
  • 'When' (jiva)
  • 'One More Song' (jiva)

There were smiling faces, tapping feet and some great joining in with the final 'One More Song'. Marvellous.After many thankyous and positive comments we headed home feeling very content. One ladyresident commented "That's just what the doctor ordered"!

    Well done, jiva. It's good that, as musicians, we give some of our time and talent to such worthy causes. Yours is particularly worthy and my hat's off to you.

    Best wishes
