Yesterday, I was trying to explain to my friend Nuala what timbrels are. Every Christmas, the Timbrelletes (the younger, more attractive version of the Timbrels at Hadleigh) perform a jazzed up routine at the Seevic Celebration Weekend (which by the way, if you haven't been to, is worth a visit). Last year we did the Blues Brothers, the year before we did Lulu's 'Shout'... you get the idea. It's all good fun and we enjoy it. But it's difficult to describe it to non-Salvationists. Waving a tambourine around just doesn't seem to justify it. So I looked up 'timbrels' on YouTube and found a really cool routine by a bunch of young people at Northern Summer School 2006. I thought I'd share it with you:
There's a big debate underneath the video on YouTube about whether it's an appropriate routine/music choice for the final festival, but I personally don't really care about that... they obviously worked really hard all week and put their heart and soul into it, and if it wasn't suitable then I'm sure it would have been cut from the programme!
Update on the health kick:
- Gym going really well. Been three times this week. The Legs, Bums and Tums class was led by some sadistic female instructor who had the energy of a hyped up Duracell bunny... am feeling the pain today!
- Been to McDonald's twice this week. That's twice more than I usually go. Ugh.
