Last choir rehearsal

Last rehearsal before the concert and poor Samantha was in despair. They were all singing with great gusto but quite what they were singing was difficult to discern. The only ones paying any attention to her were Alan the snail and Spit (the spider). The concert would be tomorrow. 

The choir

Samantha the fresh water prawn was having trouble knocking the village choir together for their Carol concert. They had loads of enthusiasm and not much else, yet. Samantha was determined. 

Geraldine

Spotty found an old photo of himself sitting on top of Geraldine, the family pony, with his naughty cousin Mazzie. He said that Geraldine was still around, ruling a half dozen young whippersnapper ponies in the paddocks.
