Faithless

The Carol Service at the Albert went down a storm.

The audience went wild as the 6 pets walked on stage, the boys in tuxedo's and the girls in gowns.

The first song, an accapella version of 'Marys Boy Child' was greeted with cautious applause, but when Trotter did his solo 'Silent Night' a brace of German Shepperd's in the front row were so overwhelmed they stormed the stage and had to escorted off by security.

Tutz sat on a stool and chirped her way through 'O little town of Bethlehem' with some supportive festive wailing in the background by the slug face.

Throughout all, Fing, resplendent in black velvet, Dickie bow firmly under chin, waived his baton, with a steely glint in his already determined eye. So much so that Fat Boy Faggot had an attack of the vapours and had to go for a lay down round the back and had to be soothed by having napkins fanned in his fat furry face.

All the pets took their turn, and the applause grew louder and louder, until the finale, when Shane McGowen joined the pets on stage to play the piano for 'Fairytale'

They had a standing ovation, flowers were thrown, a rather giddy peke threw her collar at Trotter in a sultry and suggestive manner, Trotter, being a bit on the daft side, threw it back and nearly brained her.

It was a night to be treasured and remembered.

The Preachers Lane Pet Choir say thank you, and goodnight!
