π§οΈπΆ It's Friday... and we all know what that means... Proper Job's Golden Oldies! πΆπ§οΈ
Well... whoever ordered this weather for June needs a word! π§οΈπ
It's been a bit of a rubbish week for Michael, so getting back out with Proper Job's Golden Oldies was exactly what he needed. Sometimes there really is no better tonic than putting on a colourful waistcoat, polishing the famous shiny purple shoes and... well... showing off for an hour! π
This video is just a little glimpse of today's soundcheck before everyone arrived. It's always nice to share a little behind-the-scenes look at what goes into a session.
The first stop of today's double header took Michael back to Trewartha Care Home in Carbis Bay. It's a place that holds plenty of memories, having spent many years DJing at the hotel there. More importantly though, it's where he married , so every visit to Carbis Bay is a special one.
Today's audience filled the lounge, and although they were a little more relaxed than on the last visit, they were listening to every word. Not every session has people dancing the conga around the room, and that's absolutely fine. Sometimes it's simply about sitting back, smiling, singing along and enjoying the music together.
The song of the day was undoubtedly Lonnie Donegan's My Old Man's a Dustman. The wonderfully awful jokes in the lyrics had the room laughing, proving that even decades later they're still just as daft... and just as funny! π
There was also time to celebrate Jean's birthday, with a chorus of Happy Birthday followed by a special rendition of Cheer Up Sleepy Jean, which raised plenty of smiles.
Today's outfit was the black shirt, cocktail waistcoat and, of course, those now-famous shiny purple shoes. They seem to be getting almost as much attention as Michael these days! ππ
As always, we respect the privacy and dignity of everyone attending our sessions, so any photos or videos are only ever shared with permission. πΈπ
One session down... one more to go!
