Midlands National Carol Service at Coventry Cathedral - 12th December 2017

Report on the National Carol Service in Coventry Cathedral
by
Sue Smith O.B.E. Honorary National Life Vice President

Following the heaviest snow fall in many years travelling to Coventry for the Carol Service proved a great challenge. Unfortunately many Members were unable to attend with cancellations of coaches and buses but those that negotiated the icy conditions were not disappointed.

The Cathedral was lovely and warm when we arrived which enabled us to thaw out before the service began. The special welcome from the Canon Dr. David Stone and the Coventry Cathedral Chamber Choir made the service feel very personal.

In 1983, Cindy Lauper told us that ‘Girls just want to have fun’ and we proved her right at our 80s night on 19th August.

We were a cheerful group with some of our number clad in 80s ‘going out’ favourites of bright wigs, leg warmers and fingerless gloves plus oversized earrings and clusters of necklaces. We were asked to consider our 1980s style and ponder on some big questions of the time like Who shot J.R? Was Michael Fish right when he said there would be no storm? Could Alvin Stardust teach you how to cross the road, when seen wearing a glove with a ring on the outside of it? And was a bum bag the best way to keep your valuables safe?
