It was my Mum who got me into singing properly - she knew I had to do something with my voice because she knew I was talented. She was the one who pushed me into joining a choir all those years ago, when I was about 12. I remember she told me to start with the choir and just see where it took me. ↗

I'm one of those old-fashioned homosexuals, not one of the newfangled ones who are born joining parades. ↗
