Twenty four people came to the second ukelele get together last week. We had a very constructive class with Lol and learnt some more chords. We all thought of a good name for our group and we all voted and are now called “The Acorn Ukes”.

They were able to recruit a secretary for the committee and her and Joanna are going to open a bank account on Friday. They just need a treasurer now.

“It is going better than I ever dreamed and we will be meeting at the Youth Centre near Tesco from next Wednesday 25th April from 1.30pm till 3.30pm for the foreseeable future.

“The success of this new group is all down to Newton News and the great publicity it gives to our town”, said Joanna the founder.
