Our sincere apologies to Larry’s wife Maureen. We never meant to leave Larry up a height after a fantastic weekend on our Singing for the Uncertain course! May we suggest an Ovaltine or a bedtime story? 🤣🤭😍. Better yet, book him on the Vocal Technique Course for another weekend and have a rest! 😜😆
Lovely to have you Larry. 🙌🏼
