It's been a year since I sang with Joyful Noise, not for want of trying to get to rehearsals or lack of commitment to the choir, just life getting in the way. So when I read the email about friends and family joining I was very excited and planned to go with my daughters. Still, complications meant we only managed one rehearsal together and another with just my youngest. We did enjoy ourselves though, had a great laugh and made the most of it, especially the food! It was also an opportunity to put HIV on the table again - not that it was off limits. An online friend died recently and a young friend diagnosed positive after we encouraged him to test, so there has been shock and sadness and it felt really good to focus on the joy.
