Royal Albert Hall - Sunday 16th November 2008
On Sunday 16th November 2008. Some of Kings Road Choir, went to London to sing at the Royal Albert Hall. We all Gathered in the Small Hall, at around 7:30 - 7:45 to get ready to set of. We got on the coach at about 8:05. After we got on the coach we waved our goodbyes and set of to London. It took approximately 2 hours to get there but it was worth it.
When we arrived at the Royal Albert Hall we had to wait a little while so we had our mornng snack.
When we were aloud to enter the Royal Albert Hall, we got taken to our dressing room to put our stuff down.
Then, we were wizzed of to to our first rehearsal. After our 1 1/2 rehearsal we had our lunch. But then again we were wizzed of for another rehearsal! for around 2 hours. we went over a couple of songs. But yet again we had ANOTHER break for another 1 1/2 and then wizzed back again for our FINAL rehearsal.
But then the time came for our real preformance at 6:30pm. It was AMAZING. Esspecially when we done the mexican wave. We were also recorded for a perfessional DVD for parents to buy. It went by so quickly. But it was worth it.
All the effort put in the singing showed on the way home. Everyone slowly drifted to sleep - well apart from Megan and jade who were still wide awake :-) - It was an amazing oppertunity.
The best part was when we found out who our host was ... It was Sid of off Cbbies. he was so funny!
Also when we found that Lara's design went on the t-shirt. WELL DONE !
THANK YOU to Mrs Fuke who chose me to go and represent the school. And Mr Furness, Mr Kyriarco and also Mrs Woolmer, for taking up there own time just to come and see us sing.
THANK YOU! :-)

Hi Abbie! I really like your blog! :-) and also I'm sooo glad you mentioned me and Jade staying awake because it was so funny when we had a wet wipe fight! =D Also another funny time on the coach was when you and Abi N put your head against the seat because you actually fell asleep and when you woke up you were still half asleep!
LOL :D =D
Please reply!
