Everything went well and she did exactly as requested. She came in and performed
One tune for the patrons and walked up and down I Winked she got that it was meant for me and Annie and I worded it up about our 44th wedding anniversary and she came and asked whether it was our anniversary and my wife was flabbergasted and asked how did you know - she didn’t I get that it was pre-organised and so it was a wonderful surprise for her
She played the second tune just for us and one of the waitresses was French and she sang along with the words. I knew the tune so I Lala’d the tune
All the staff were also appreciative of her doing the performance as well.
Thank you once again for organising it. It’s such short notice. Much appreciated.
hope this is enough feedback for you.
Cheers
Thanks
