Return to (weather-permitting) face-to-face ukulele sessions! Hi folks, if you've been missing your uke or putting off starting with a group until after lockdown, now is the time! The Yarra YUkers are meeting again outdoors while the sun shines, every Tuesday evening @6pm, currently at the Darling Gardens in Clifton Hill. You can find further details at www.greatbigukes.com and you can find current music sheets (including a .zip of the set) at www.greatbigukes.com/music/ Strongly suggest you download and print your own set, or save them to a device you can read from. You can see just a snippet of our first session last week at our Facebook page: https://fb.watch/1VI1iaxQ-t/ You can bring a chair to sit on or a picnic blanket, refreshments, music stand/esky etc. etc. Forecast for this week (24 Nov) is 21C partly cloudy with a southerly breeze. It gets a little cooler around 7pm, so have a snuggly cardigan on hand! In due course we might move back to The Retreat Hotel in Abbotsford or to a park near there so folks can get a meal & drinks afterwards. But for now, the centrally located Darling Gardens - reachable via Clifton Hill railway station, the Eastern Fwy, Alexandra Pde/ Hoddle Street /Queen's Parade /Heidelberg Rd. Of course, you're welcome to hang about afterwards & chat to all the other lovely folk, but Harry will direct the group through a playlist from 6-7:30ish. If you have any queries, email '[masked]' or message Harry on[masked]
