... has a very limp handshake.

The choir sang for their Excellancies on Sunday morning when they attended our Church for the 1662 service. We sang the O Magnum Mysterium setting of the mass by Victoria. I guess I should have practised because they Agnus Dei when it splits into 5 voice parts, I was on one all by myself and I made a minor error. Noone would have noticed but I was annoyed with myself. The choir sounded really good and the music was beautiful.

We were introduced the the Governor-General and his wife after the service and had a chat with them. They both seem very nice but the Govenor-General doesn't look you in the eyes when talking to you, that irritates me. I came to realise afterwards that I don't guess he can give a firm handshake considering the amount he must do, he would get bruised!
