Welsh Luncheon 2010 |
Cardigan Tangent arranged for each table at the Welsh lunch to make up and sing words to an Abba tune. The initial reaction was oohhhhh, but it proved to be a great ice breaker and we all enjoyed the impromptu cabarets, it reminded me of my younger days in Circle where the cabaret was always the dread but often the highlight of the year. Below are a selection, some are quite ingenious.
Apologies to Benny and Bjorn of Abba |
Cwmbran, Tenby and Llwchwr Tangents put this together to the tune of Fernando
There is something here in Wales today in Cardigan Bay Tangento O
There is something here for you and me a Jamboree Tangento O
We never thought that we'd be here There's not regret
If we had to do the same again we would, our friends for Tangent
Lampeter and Neath to the tune She'll be coming round the mountain when she comes
We've just come across the mountain SOS
In a bus from Vincents coaches SOS
We've had Pimms before 11
Now we're in seventh heaven
ABBA inspiration SOS

Cardigan and ? sorry didn't get the names to the tune of Money money
We're here today at the Tangent do, having lunch just me and you
We're all glad.
We've travelled here from far and near, there's lots of smiles and perhaps a tear
But we're not sad
Tangent girls are lots of fun, We'll get to know you everyone,
We'll meet again one sunny day and next time we will try and pay
Money money money, we ain't got any, we've spent it all on gin
Money money money it's not funny, don't know where we've been, Aahaaaaa
All the things we could buy, if we had a stash of money
But we haven't so we'll cry.
