  • There were 280 songs and 42 singers on 29 March 2003, and only five songs were repeated, which is pretty good considering that there were three sessions going for most of the afternoon. As always my thanks to all those who took part and a special thanks to those who have been there every year since we started the event nine years ago. Also my thanks to Alison and Doug for making us welcome at the Cross Keys. Hope to see you all soon.This 258 years old Inn with great views over the Saddleworth hills takes some beating!
