Middle aged woman makes tragic music video in a bid to sell a retirement flat in St Albans.
ALT Middle aged woman makes tragic music video in a bid to sell a 2-bedroom retirement flat in St Albans, Hertfordshire, UK. She ruins one of the best songs of all time - You've Got a Friend by @caroleking - by adding terrible lyrics! Oh my God! You will not believe how bad it is. This video will go viral, for sure. Let's just hope she sells the flat or I fear there will be more songs like this for us to endure.

Stars aligned tonight. Wonderful singing from @ClareChoir, completely full Chapel, musical feast incl @ALEstrangeMusic @JoForbesLE who joined us, sun-kissed drinks, dinner with students before they return to revision (or the bar?!). Clare is a happy place & long may that last ❤️
