Found out what day my BBC début will be... for anyone with access to the Beeb (and the inclination to listen...) my choir will be on 'Sunday half hour' on Jan 3rd 2010, I think at about 8.30, and I am assuming the second program will be the following Sunday.

So I have been back at uni 'proper' for just over a week now and I have just been absolutely slammed!
